"Ha llegado el estruendo hasta el fin de la tierra, porque el Señor tiene un pleito contra las naciones; entra en juicio contra toda carne; a los impíos, los entrega a la espada" —declara el Señor .
Lleg el estruendo hasta el cabo de la tierra; porque Jehov tiene litigio con las naciones; l es el Juez de toda carne; entregar los impos a espada, dice Jehov.
Lleg el estruendo hasta el cabo de la tierra; porque es juicio del SEOR con los gentiles: l es el Juez de toda carne; entregar los impos a cuchillo, dijo el SEOR.
Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
A noise: The dreadful devastations made by the Chaldeans through all the nations of the East, and afterwards the destruction of Babylon by the Medes and Persians, are here primarily foretold in this awful language; but it also accords very much with the passages in which the ruin of all the anti- christian powers is evidently predicted. Jeremiah 45:5, Isaiah 34:8, Hosea 4:1, Hosea 12:2, Micah 6:2
plead: Isaiah 66:16, Ezekiel 20:35, Ezekiel 20:36, Ezekiel 38:22, Joel 3:2
Reciprocal: Isaiah 29:7 - the multitude Jeremiah 1:15 - I will call Ezekiel 33:2 - When I bring the sword upon a land Joel 3:16 - roar
Gill's Notes on the Bible
A noise shall come up [even] to the ends of the earth,.... Wars, and rumours of wars, everywhere, till the cup has gone round, and all nations have drank of it, and have felt the power of divine wrath for their sins:
for the Lord hath a controversy with the nations; will enter into a judicial process with them; will litigate the point with them, and try it openly; that it may be seen who is in the right, and who in the wrong:
he will plead with all flesh; or enter into judgment with them, as Kimchi; or reprove them in judgment, as Jarchi; he will be too many for them; he will carry his case, overcome them in judgment, and reprove and condemn them. Or the words may be rendered, "he will be judged by all flesh" s; he will submit it to the judgment of the whole world, if it is not a righteous thing in him to do what he is about to do, and will do; he will make it clear and manifest that he does nothing unjustly, but all according to the strict rules of justice and equity:
he will give them [that are] wicked to the sword, saith the Lord; to be destroyed by it, and none but them; and seeing they are such that deserve it, he is not to be charged with unrighteousness in so doing.
s נשפט הוא לכל בשר "judicium subibit ipse cum omni carne", Tigurine version.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
A noise - The trampling of an army in motion. Compare Amos 2:2.
A controversy - i. e., a suit at law.
Will plead - Or, will hold judgment. As judge He delivers the wicked to the sword.
