Levítico 26

1 No haréis para vosotros ídolos, ni escultura, ni os levantaréis título, ni pondréis en vuestra tierra piedra pintada para inclinaros a ella: porque yo Jehová soy vuestro Dios.

[Yahweh also said this to Moses/me on Sinai Mountain]: “Do not make idols or set up statues of false gods or sacred stones [to worship other gods]. And do not put on your property a stone that has been shaped [to resemble a false god] and bow down to [worship] it. [You must worship only] me, Yahweh, your God.

2 Guardád mis sábados, y tenéd en reverencia mi santuario: Yo Jehová.

“Honor the Sabbath days and revere my Sacred Tent, because I, Yahweh, [live there].

3 Si anduviereis en mis decretos, y guardareis mis mandamientos, y los hiciereis,

“If you carefully obey all my commands [DOU],

4 Yo daré vuestra lluvia en su tiempo, y la tierra dará su fruto, y el árbol del campo dará su fruto:

I will send rain for you at the proper/right times, in order that crops will grow on your land and there will be plenty of fruit on your trees.

5 Y la trilla os alcanzará a la vendimia, y la vendimia alcanzará a la sementera, y comeréis vuestro pan a hartura, y habitaréis seguros en vuestra tierra.

You will continue [harvesting and] threshing [grain] until it is time to harvest grapes, and you will continue to harvest grapes until it is time to start planting [things in the following year]. And you will have all the food that you want to eat, and you will live safely in your land.

6 Y yo daré paz en la tierra; y dormiréis, y no habrá quien os espante: y haré quitar las malas bestias de vuestra tierra: y por vuestra tierra no pasará espada.

“[If you obey all my laws], there will be peace in your country, and when you lie down [to sleep], nothing will cause you to be afraid. I will get rid of the dangerous animals in your country, and there will no wars [MTY] in your country.

7 Y perseguiréis a vuestros enemigos, y delante de vosotros caerán a cuchillo.

You will pursue your enemies and kill them with your swords:

8 Y cinco de vosotros perseguirán a ciento, y ciento de vosotros perseguirán a diez mil, y vuestros enemigos caerán a cuchillo delante de vosotros.

Five of you will pursue 100 of them, and 100 of you will pursue 1,000 of them and kill them with your swords.

9 Porque yo me volveré a vosotros, y haceros he crecer, y multiplicaros he, y afirmaré mi concierto con vosotros.

“[If you obey all my laws], I will bless you and cause you to have many children [DOU]. And I will do what I said that I would do in the agreement that I made with you.

10 Y comeréis añejo envejecido, y sacaréis fuera lo añejo a causa de lo nuevo.

When you are still eating food from the harvest from the previous year, it will be necessary for you to throw away some of it to make space for the new harvest.

11 Y pondré mi morada en medio de vosotros, y mi alma no os abominará.

I will live among you in my Sacred Tent, and I will never reject you.

12 Y andaré entre vosotros, y yo seré vuestro Dios, y vosotros seréis mi pueblo.

I will walk among you and continue to be your God, and you will continue to be my people.

13 Yo Jehová, vuestro Dios, que os saqué de la tierra de Egipto, que no fueseis sus siervos: y rompí los látigos de vuestro yugo, y os he hecho andar el rostro alto.

I am Yahweh your God, the one who brought you out of Egypt in order that you would no longer be slaves of the people of Egypt. [When you were there, you were treated as though you were animals that worked for the people of Egypt, but] [MET] I broke the bars of the (yokes/frames that were put around your necks) and enabled you to walk with your heads up.”

14 Empero si no me oyereis, ni hiciereis todos estos mis mandamientos,

“But if you will not heed me and obey all these commands,

15 Y si abominareis mis decretos, y vuestra alma menospreciare mis derechos no haciendo todos mis mandamientos, e invalidando mi concierto;

and if you reject [DOU] my decrees and laws, and do not do [DOU] what I commanded you to do in the agreement that I made with you,

16 Yo también haré con vosotros esto: Enviaré sobre vosotros terror, hética, y calentura, que consuman los ojos, y atormenten el alma: y sembraréis en balde vuestra simiente, porque vuestros enemigos lo comerán.

these are the things that I will do to you: I will suddenly cause there to be disasters that will ruin you. You will have diseases that cannot be cured, and fevers that will cause you to become blind and will slowly kill you. It will be useless for you to plant seeds, because your enemies will eat the crops that grow.

17 Y pondré mi ira sobre vosotros, y seréis heridos delante de vuestros enemigos; y los que os aborrecen se enseñorearán de vosotros, y huiréis sin que haya quien os persiga.

I will reject/abandon you [IDM], with the result that you will be defeated by your enemies. Then those who hate you will rule you, and [you will be so terrified that] you will run away even when no one is pursuing you.

18 Y si aun con estas cosas no me oyereis, yo tornaré a castigaros siete veces por vuestros pecados.

“If you still will not heed me after all those things happen to you, I will continue to punish you again and again for the sins that you have committed.

19 Y quebrantaré la soberbia de vuestra fortaleza, y tornaré vuestro cielo como hierro, y vuestra tierra como metal.

I will cause you to no longer be stubborn and proud; I will cause [no rain to fall; it will be as though] [MET] the sky is made of iron; and the ground will be [as hard as] brass [MET].

20 Y vuestra fuerza se consumirá en vano, que vuestra tierra no dará su fruto, y los árboles de la tierra no darán su fruto.

You will uselessly work very hard [to plant seeds], because crops will not grow in the hard soil in your fields, and fruit will not grow on your trees.

21 Y si anduviereis conmigo al encuentro y no me quisiereis oír, yo añadiré sobre vosotros plagas siete veces según vuestros pecados.

“If you continue to oppose me and refuse to heed me, I will cause you to experience disasters again and again, like you deserve to experience because of your sins.

22 Y enviaré contra vosotros bestias fieras, que os deshijen, y talen vuestros animales, y os apoquen, y vuestros caminos sean desiertos.

I will send wild animals to attack you, and they will kill your little children and destroy your cattle. There will be very few of you who will remain alive, with the result that there will be very few [HYP] people walking on the roads in your country.

23 Y si con estas cosas no me fuereis castigados, mas aun anduviereis conmigo al encuentro,

“When you experience those things that I do to punish you, if you still do not pay attention to me, and if you continue to oppose me,

24 Yo también andaré con vosotros al encuentro y heriros he también siete veces al encuentro por vuestros pecados.

I myself will oppose you, and I will punish you for your sins again and again.

25 Y meteré sobre vosotros espada vengadora de la venganza del concierto, y juntaros heis a vuestras ciudades, y yo enviaré pestilencia entre vosotros, y seréis entregados en mano del enemigo.

I will send [foreign] [MTY] to punish you for not doing the things that I commanded you to do in the agreement that I made with you. If you [try to escape from your enemies by] shutting yourselves in your cities [that have walls around them], I will cause you to experience plagues, and I will allow your enemies to capture [IDM] you.

26 Cuando yo os quebrantaré el bordón del pan, cocerán diez mujeres vuestro pan en un horno, y volverán vuestro pan por peso: y comeréis, y no os hartaréis.

When I cut off your food supply, there will be very little flour with which to make bread. As a result, ten women will be able to bake all their bread in [only] one oven. [When the bread is baked], each woman will divide it [among the members of her family, but there will be very little for each one], and when they have eaten all of it, they will still be hungry.

27 Y si con esto no me oyereis, mas todavía anduviereis conmigo al encuentro,

“After all those things happen, if you still do not heed me, if you still oppose me,

28 Yo andaré con vosotros a ira de al encuentro, y castigaros he también yo siete veces por vuestros pecados.

I will be very angry with you, and I will oppose you, and I myself will punish you for your sins again and again.

29 Y comeréis las carnes de vuestros hijos, y las carnes de vuestras hijas comeréis.

[You will be extremely hungry, with the result that] you will [kill] your sons and daughters and eat their flesh.

30 Y destruiré vuestros altos, y talaré vuestras imágines, y pondré vuestros cuerpos muertos sobre los cuerpos muertos de vuestros ídolos, y mi alma os abominará.

I will cause the shrines [where you worship idols] on hilltops to be destroyed. I will smash the altars where you burn incense [to worship your gods], and I will cause your corpses to be piled on the lifeless statues of your gods. And I will detest you.

31 Y pondré vuestras ciudades en desierto, y asolaré vuestros santuarios, y no oleré el olor de vuestra holganza.

I will cause your cities to become heaps of ruins, and I will cause the buildings that are dedicated to the worship of your gods to be smashed. And I will not be pleased at all with the aroma of your offerings [that are burned on the altar].

32 Y yo asolaré la tierra, que se espanten de ella vuestros enemigos, que moran en ella.

I will completely ruin your country, with the result that even your enemies who capture it will be shocked/appalled [when they see it].

33 Y a vosotros esparciré por las gentes, y desenvainaré espada en pos de vosotros: y vuestra tierra estará asolada, y vuestras ciudades serán desierto.

I will enable [your enemies to kill you with] their swords, and I will cause the rest of you to be scattered among other nations. Your country will be ruined and your cities will become ruins.

34 Entonces la tierra holgará sus sábados todos los días que estuviere asolada, y vosotros en la tierra de vuestros enemigos: entonces la tierra sabatizará, y holgará sus sábados.

After that happens, as long as you are living in your enemies’ countries, your land will be allowed to rest, like you should have allowed it to rest every seven years.

35 Todo el tiempo que estará asolada, holgará lo que no holgó en vuestros sábados mientras habitabais en ella.

All the time that your land is desolate, it will be able to rest, like you did not enable it to rest during all the years that you lived there.

36 Y los que quedaren de vosotros, yo meteré cobardía en sus corazones en la tierra de sus enemigos, que el sonido de una hoja movida los perseguirá, y huirán como de una espada, y caerán sin haber quien los persiga.

“As for you people who will remain alive in the countries to which your enemies [will have taken you], I will cause you to become so afraid that when you hear the sound of leaves being blown by the wind, you will run away. You will run like [SIM] you are running from [a man carrying] a sword, and you will fall down, even though no one is pursuing you.

37 Y tropezarán los unos en los otros como delante de una espada sin haber quien los persiga, y no podréis resistir delante de vuestros enemigos.

You will stumble over each other. So you will not be able to stand and fight your enemies.

38 Y pereceréis entre las gentes, y la tierra de vuestros enemigos os consumirá.

Many of you will die in the countries that belong to your enemies [DOU].

39 Y los que quedaren de vosotros se desleirán en las tierras de vuestros enemigos por su iniquidad, y por la iniquidad de sus padres, con ellos serán desleídos.

And those of you who remain alive will slowly die and rot in the countries of your enemies because of your sins and because of the sins of your ancestors.

40 Y confesarán su iniquidad, y la iniquidad de sus padres, por su prevaricación con que prevaricaron contra mí: y también porque anduvieron conmigo al encuentro.

“But your descendants must confess their sins and the sins that their ancestors committed. Their ancestors acted unfaithfully toward me and were hostile to me, with the result that I forced them to go to the countries that belonged to their enemies. But when your descendants humble themselves [SYN] and stop being very stubborn [IDM] and accept being punished for their sins,

41 También yo habré andado con ellos al encuentro, y los habré metido en la tierra de sus enemigos: y entonces se humillará su corazón incircunciso, y rogarán por su pecado.

42 Y yo me acordaré de mi concierto con Jacob, y asimismo de mi concierto con Isaac, y también de mi concierto con Abraham me acordaré, y habré memoria de la tierra.

I will remember the agreement that I made with [your ancestors] Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, and [what I promised them about] this land.

43 Que la tierra estará desamparada de ellos, y holgará sus sábados estando yerma a causa de ellos: y ellos rogarán por su pecado: por cuanto menospreciaron mis derechos, y el alma de ellos tuvo fastidio de mis decretos.

But [before that happens], you will be forced to leave your land, with the result that the land will be able to rest while it is desolate and while the people are being punished for rejecting my laws and hating my decrees [DOU].

44 Y aun con todo esto estando ellos en tierra de sus enemigos, yo no los deseché, ni los abominé para consumirlos invalidando mi concierto con ellos: porque yo Jehová soy su Dios.

But when that happens, I will still not reject them or hate them and destroy them completely. I will not cancel the agreement that I made with them; for I am still Yahweh their God.

45 Antes me acordaré de ellos por el concierto antiguo, cuando los saqué de la tierra de Egipto en ojos de las gentes para ser su Dios: Yo Jehová.

I will (remember/never forget) the agreement that I made with your ancestors when I brought them out of Egypt, in order that the people of all nations will know that I, Yahweh, [will continue to] be your God.”

46 Estos son los decretos, derechos, y leyes que dio Jehová entre sí y los hijos de Israel en el monte de Sinaí por mano de Moisés.

Those are the decrees, the laws, and the regulations [DOU] that Yahweh established on Sinai Mountain between himself and the Israeli people by [giving them to] Moses/me [to tell to them].
