BOOK LIST/LISTA DE LIBROS III

~----------------------~~~----------------------~

I do not endorse any of these books nor do I recommend their authors. It is simply to offer a list of some of the books that I personally had read and others for the interesting reviews by literary critics.

However there is a Great Book that I emphatically recommend and that is THE HOLY BIBLE, KING JAMES VERSION 1611 (KJV):

Este servidor no endorsa ni recomienda ninguno de estos libros ni sus autores. Simplemente ofrecer una corta recopilación de algunos de los muchos libros que he leído y que estoy leyendo y que también uso como referencia en comparación con otras fuentes.

Sin embargo existe un Gran Libro que enfáticamente yo sí recomiendo y es LA SANTA BIBLIA, VERSIÓN REINA-VALERA 1960: But I will show thee that which is noted in the scripture of truth. / Pero yo te declararé lo que está escrito en el libro de la verdad. Daniel 12:21. Thus said the Lord, Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not the rich man glory in his riches. But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth me, that I am the Lord which exercise loving-kindness, judgement, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I delight, said the Lord. / Así dijo Jehová: No se alabe el sabio en su sabiduría, ni en su valentía se alabe el valiente, ni el rico se alabe en sus riquezas. Mas alábese en esto el que se hubiere de alabar: en entenderme y conocerme, que yo soy Jehová, que hago misericordia, juicio y justicia en la tierra; porque estas cosas quiero, dice Jehová. Jeremiah/Jeremías 9:23-24

HABAKKUK / HABACUC

(#1) The burden which Ha-bak’kuk the prophet did see.  2) O Lord how long shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear! even cry out unto thee of violence, and thou wilt not save!  3) Why dost thou show me iniquity, and cause me to behold grievance? for spoiling and violence are before me : and there are that raise up strife and contention.

4) Therefore the law is slacked, and judgment doth never go forth: for the wicked doth compass about the righteous; therefore wrong judgment proceedeth.  5) Behold ye among the heathen, and regard, and wonder marvelously: for I will work a work in your days, which ye will not believe, though it be told you.  6) For, lo, I raise up the Chal-de’ans, that bitter and hasty nation, which shall march through the breadth of the land, to possess the dwelling places that are not theirs.

7) They are terrible and dreadful: their judgment and their dignity shall proceed of themselves.  8) Their horses also are swifter than the leopards, and are more fierce than the evening wolves: and their horsemen shall spread themselves, and their horsemen shall come from far; they shall fly as the eagle that hasteth to eat.  9) They shall come all for violence: their faces shall sup up as the east wind, and they shall gather the captivity as the sand.

10) And they shall scoff at kings, and the princes shall be a scorn unto them: they shall deride every stronghold; for they shall heap dust, and take it.  11) Then shall his mind change, and he shall pass over, and offend, imputing this his power unto god.  12) Art thou not from everlasting, O Lord my God, mine Holy One? we shall not die. O Lord, thou hast ordained them for judgment; and O mighty God, thou hast established them for correction.

13) Thou art of purer eyes than to behold evil, and canst not look on iniquity: wherefore lookest thou upon them that deal treacherously, and holdest thy tongue when the wicked devoureth the man that is more righteous than he?  14) And makest men as the fishes of the sea, as the creeping things, that have no ruler over them?  15) They take up all of them with the angle, they catch them in their net, and gather them in their drag: therefore they rejoice and are glad.  16) Therefore they sacrifice unto their net, and burn incense unto their drag: because by them their portion is fat, and their meat plenteous. 17)  Shall they therefore empty their net, and not spare continually to slay the nations?

(#2) I WILL stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will watch to see what he will say unto me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved. 2)  And the Lord answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. 3)  For the vision is jet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. 4)  Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith.

5) Yea also, because he transgresseth by wine, he enlargeth his desire as hell, and is as death, and cannot be satisfied, but gathereth unto him all nations, and heapeth unto him all people. 6)  Shall not all these take up a parable against him, and a taunting proverb against him, and say, Woe to him that increaseth that which is not his! how long? and to him that ladeth himself with thick clay! 7) Shall they not rise up suddenly that shall bite thee, and awake that shall vex thee, and thou shalt be for booties unto them? 8)  Because thou hast spoiled many nations, all the remnant of the people shall spoil thee; because of men’s blood, and for the violence of the land, of the city, and of all that dwell therein.

9) Woe to him that coveteth an evil covetousness to his house, that he may set his nest on high, that he may be delivered from the power of evil! 10)  Thou hast consulted shame to thy house by cutting off many people, and hast sinned against thy soul. 11)  For the stone shall cry out of the wall, and the beam out of the timber shall answer it.

12) Woe to him that buildeth a town with blood, and stablisheth a city by iniquity! 13)  Behold, is it not of the Lord of hosts that the people shall labor in the very fire, and the people shall weary themselves for very vanity? 14)  For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of God, as the waters cover the sea.

15) Woe unto him that giveth his neighbor drink, that puttest thy bottle to him, and makest him drunken also, that thou mayest look on their nakedness! 16)  Thou art filled with shame for glory: drink thou also, and let thy foreskin be uncovered: the cup of the Lord’s right hand shall be turned unto thee, and shameful spewing shall be on thy glory. 17)  For the violence of Leb’a-non shall cover thee, and the spoil of beasts, which made them afraid, because of men’s blood, and for the violence of the land, of the city, and of all that dwell therein.

18) What profitheth the graven image that the maker thereof hath graven it; the molten image, and a teacher of lies, that the maker of his work trusteth therein, to make dumb idols? 19)  Woe unto him that saith to the wood, Awake; to the dumb stone, Arise, it shall teach! Behold, it is laid over with gold and silver, and there is no breath at all in the midst of it. 20)  But the Lord is in his holy temple: let all the earth keep silence before him.

(#3) A prayer of Ha-bak’kuk the prophet upon Shi-gi’o–noth. 2)  O Lord, I have heard thy speech, and was afraid: O Lord, revive thy work in the midst of the years, in the midst of the years make known; in wrath remember mercy. 3)  God came from Te’man, and the Holy One from mount Pa’ran. Se’lah. His glory covered the heavens, and the earth was full of his praise.

4) And his brightness was as the light; he had horns coming out of his hand: and there was the hiding of his power. 5)  Before him went the pestilence, and burning coals went forth at his feet. 6)  He stood, and measured the earth: he beheld, and drove asunder the nations; and the everlasting mountains were scattered, the perpetual hills did bow: his ways are everlasting. 7)  I saw the tents of Cu’shan in affliction: and the curtains of the land of Mid’i-an did tremble.

8) Was the Lord displeased against the rivers? was thine anger against the rivers? was thy wrath against the sea, that thou didst ride upon thine horses and thy chariots of salvation? 9)  Thy bow was made quite naked, according to the oaths of the tribes, even thy word. Se’lah. Thou didst cleave the earth with rivers. 10)  The mountains saw thee, and they trembled: the overflowing of the water passed by: the deep uttered his voice, and lifted up his hands on high.

11) The sun and moon stood in their habitation: at the light of thine arrows they went, and at the shinning of thy glittering spear. 12)  Thou didst march through the land in indignation, thou didst thresh the heathen in anger. 13)  Thou wentest forth for the salvation of thy people, even for salvation with thine anointed; thou woundedst the head out of the house of the wicked, by discovering the foundation unto the neck. Se’lah. 14)  Thou didst strike through with his staves the head of his villages: they came out as a whirlwind to scatter me; their rejoicing was as to devour the poor secretly. 15)  thou didst walk through the sea with thine horses, through the heap of great waters.

16) When I heard, my belly trembles; my lips quivered at the voice: rottenness entered into my bones, and I trembled in myself, that I might rest in the day of trouble: when he cometh up onto the people, he will invade them with his troops. 17)  Although the fig tree shall not blossom, neither shall fruit be in the vines; the labor of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and there shall be no herd in the stalls: 18)  Yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation. 19)  The Lord God is my strength, and he will make my feet like hinds’ feet, and he will make me walk upon mine high places. To the chief singer on my stringed instruments.

HABACUC/HABAKKUK

1 La profecía que vino al profeta Habacuc.

2) ¿Hasta cuándo, oh Jehová, clamaré, y no oirás; y daré voces a ti a causa de la violencia, y no salvarás?

3) ¿Por qué me haces ver iniquidad, y haces que vea molestia? Destrucción y violencia están delante de mí, y pleito y contienda se levanta.

4) Por lo cual la ley es debilitada, y el juicio no sale según la verdad; por cuanto el impío asedia al justo, por eso sale torcida la justicia.

5) Mirad entre las naciones, y ved, y asombraos; porque haré una obra en vuestros días, que aun cuando se os contare, no la creeréis.

6) Porque he aquí, yo levanto a los caldeos, nación cruel y presurosa, que camina por la anchura de la tierra para poseer las moradas ajenas.

7) Formidable es y terrible; de ella misma procede su justicia y su dignidad.

8) Sus caballos serán más ligeros que leopardos, y más feroces que lobos nocturnos, y sus jinetes se multiplicarán; vendrán de lejos sus jinetes, y volarán como águilas que se apresuran a devorar.

9) Toda ella vendrá a la presa; el terror va delante de ella, y recogerá cautivos como arena.

10) Escarnecerá a los reyes, y de los príncipes hará burla; se reirá de toda fortaleza, y levantará terraplén y la tomará.

11) Luego pasará como el huracán, y ofenderá atribuyendo su fuerza a su dios.

12) ¿No eres tú desde el principio, oh Jehová, Dios mío, Santo mío? No moriremos. Oh Jehová, para juicio lo pusiste; y tú, oh Roca, lo fundaste para castigar.

13) Muy limpio eres de ojos para ver el mal, ni puedes ver el agravio; ¿por qué ves a los menospreciadores, y callas cuando destruye el impío al más justo que él

14) y hace que sean los hombres como los peces del mar, como reptiles que no tienen quien los gobierne?

15) Sacará a todos con anzuelo, los recogerá con su red, y los juntará en sus mallas; por lo cual se alegrará y regocijará.

16) Por eso hará sacrificios a su red, y ofrecerá sahumerios a sus mallas; porque con ellas engordó su porción, y engrasó su comida.

17) ¿Vaciará por eso su red, y no tendrá piedad de aniquilar naciones continuamente?

2 Sobre mi guarda estaré, y sobre la fortaleza afirmaré el pie, y velaré para ver lo que se me dirá, y qué he de responder tocante a mi queja.

2) Y Jehová me respondió, y dijo: Escribe la visión, y declárala en tablas, para que corra el que leyere en ella.

3) Aunque la visión tardará aún por un tiempo, mas se apresura hacia el fin, y no mentirá; aunque tardare, espéralo, porque sin duda vendrá, no tardará.

4) He aquí que aquel cuya alma no es recta, se enorgullece; mas el justo por su fe vivirá.

5) Y también, el que es dado al vino es traicionero, hombre soberbio, que no permanecerá; ensanchó como el Seol su alma, y es como la muerte, que no se saciará; antes reunió para sí todas las gentes, y juntó para sí todos los pueblos.

6) ¿No han de levantar todos éstos refrán sobre él, y sarcasmos contra él? Dirán: ¡Ay del que multiplicó lo que no era suyo! ¿Hasta cuándo había de acumular sobre sí pendra tras prenda?

7) ¿No se levantarán de repente tus deudores, y se despertarán los que te harán temblar, y serás despojo para ellos?

8) Por cuanto tú has despojado a muchas naciones, todos los otros pueblos te despojarán, a causa de la sangre de los hombres, y de los robos de la tierra, de las ciudades y de todos los que habitan en ellas.

9) ¡Ay del que codicia injusta ganancia para su casa, para poner en alto su nido, para escaparse del poder del mal!

10) Tomaste consejo vergonzoso para tu casa, asolaste muchos pueblos, y has pecado contra tu vida.

11) Porque la piedra clamará desde el muro, y la tabla del enmaderado le responderá.

12) ¡Ay del que edifica la ciudad con sangre, y del que funda una ciudad con iniquidad!

13) ¿No es esto de Jehová de los ejércitos? Los pueblos, pues, trabajarán para el fuego, y las naciones se fatigarán en vano.

14) Porque la tierra será llena del conocimiento de la gloria de Jehová, como las aguas cubren el mar.

15) ¡Ay del que da de beber a su prójimo! ¡Ay de ti que le acercas tu hiel, y le embriagas para mirar su desnudez!

16) Te has llenado de deshonra más que de honra; bebe tú también, y serás descubierto; el cáliz de la mano derecha de Jehová vendrá hasta ti, y vómito de afrenta sobre tu gloria.

17) Porque la rapiña del Líbano caerá sobre ti, y la destrucción de las fieras te quebrantará, a causa de la sangre de los hombres, y del robo de la tierra, de las ciudades y de todos los que en ellas habitaba.

18) ¿De qué sirve la escultura que esculpió el que la hizo? ¿la estatua de fundición que enseña mentira, para que haciendo imágenes mudas confíe el hacedor en su obra?

19) ¡Ay del que dice al palo: Despiértate; y a la piedra muda: Levántate! ¿Podrá él enseñar? He aquí está cubierto de oro y plata, y no hay espíritu en él.

20) Mas Jehová está en su santo templo; calle delante de él toda la tierra.

3 Oración del profeta Habacuc, sobre Sigionot.

2) Oh Jehová he oído tu palabra, y temí.

Oh Jehová, aviva tu obra en medio de los tiempos,

En medio de los tiempos hazla conocer;

En la ira acuérdate de tu misericordia.

3) Dios vendrá de Temán,

Y el Santo desde el monte de Parán.

...................................................Selah

Su gloria cubrió los cielos,

Y la tierra se llenó de su alabanza.

4) Y el resplandor fue como la luz;

Rayos brillantes salían de su mano,

Y allí estaba escondido su poder.

5) Delante de su rostro iba mortandad,

Y a sus pies salían carbones encendidos.

6) Se levantó, y midió la tierra;

Miró, e hizo temblar las gentes;

Los montes antiguos fueron desmenuzados,

Los collados antiguos de humillaron.

Sus caminos son eternos.

7) He visto las tiendas de Cusán en aflicción;

Las tiendas de la tierra de Madián temblaron.

8) ¿Te airaste, oh Jehová, contra los ríos?

¿Contra los ríos te airaste?

¿Fue tu ira contra el mar

Cuando montaste en tus caballos,

Y en tus carros de victoria?

9) Se descubrió enteramente tu arco;

Los juramentos a las tribus fueron palabra segura.

...............................................................Selah

Hendiste la tierra con ríos.

10) Te vieron y tuvieron temor los montes;

Pasó la inundación de las aguas;

El abismo dio su voz,

A lo alto alzó sus manos.

11) El sol y la luna se pararon en su lugar;

A la luz de tus saetas anduvieron,

Y al resplandor de tu fulgente lanza.

12) Con ira hollaste la tierra

Con furor trillaste las naciones.

13) Saliste para socorrer a tu pueblo,

Para socorrer a tu ungido.

Traspasaste la cabeza de la casa del impío,

Descubriendo el cimiento hasta la roca.

...........................................................Selah

14) Horadaste con sus propios dardos las cabezas de sus guerreros,

Que como tempestad acometieron para dispersarme,

Cuyo regocijo era como para devorar al pobre encubiertamente.

15) Caminaste en el mar con tus caballos,

Sobre la mole de las grandes aguas.

16) Oí, y se conmovieron mis entrañas;

A la voz temblaron mis labios;

Pudrición entró en mis huesos, y dentro de mí me estremecí;

Si bien estaré quieto el día de la angustia,

Cuando suba al pueblo el que lo invadirá con sus tropas.

17) Aunque la higuera no florezca,

Ni en las vides haya frutos,

Aunque falte el producto del olivo,

Y los labrados no den mantenimiento,

Y las ovejas sean quitadas de la majada,

Y no haya vacas en los corrales;

18) Con todo, yo me alegraré en Jehová,

Y me gozaré en el Dios de mi salvación.

19) Jehová el Señor es mi fortaleza,

El cual hace mis pies como ciervas,

Y en mis alturas me hace andar.

Al jefe de los cantores, sobre mis instrumentos de cuerdas.

=====================<>=====================

Mirad entre las naciones, y ved, y asombraos;

porque haré una obra en vuestros días,

que aun cuando se os contare, no la creeréis.

Habacuc 1:5
