Isaiah 40:31 in Spanish (Isaías 40:31)

The eagle verse. In Spanish the promise climbs the same way it does in English: new strength, then wings, then running, then the long steady walk that does not faint.

Here is the whole verse in the Reina-Valera with the English underneath, read aloud by a real voice at full speed and slow.

Isaiah 40:31 · Isaías 40:31

Mas los que esperan a Jehová tendrán nuevas fuerzas; levantarán las alas como águilas; correrán, y no se cansarán; caminarán, y no se fatigarán.

But those who wait upon the LORD will renew their strength; they will mount up with wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not faint.

How to pronounce it

Common questions

How do you say wings as eagles in Spanish?+

"levantarán las alas como águilas": they shall mount up with wings like eagles. Alas is wings; águilas is eagles.

How do you say they that wait upon the Lord in Spanish?+

"los que esperan a Jehová." The verb esperar means both to wait and to hope, so the Spanish carries both senses at once.

What is the difference between cansarse and fatigarse?+

Both mean to tire. Cansarse is the everyday word for getting tired; fatigarse is deeper, to be worn out or faint. The verse uses them in rising order: run without tiring, walk without collapsing.
