1 ¿Por qué el Todopoderoso no fija tiempos para juzgar? ¿Por qué los que lo conocen no ven esos días?
1 “Why aren’t times laid up by the Almighty? Why don’t those who know him see his days?
2 Los malvados cambian los límites de los terrenos y se llevan por la fuerza los rebaños junto con sus pastores.
2 There are people who remove the landmarks. They violently take away flocks, and feed them.
3 Roban el asno del huérfano y toman el buey de la viuda como garantía de una deuda.
3 They drive away the donkey of the fatherless, and they take the widow’s ox for a pledge.
4 Apartan del camino a los oprimidos y obligan a todos los pobres de la tierra a esconderse juntos.

9 There are those who pluck the fatherless from the breast, and take a pledge of the poor,
10 Otros andan sin ropa y, aunque pasan hambre, recogen el grano de los campos.
10 so that they go around naked without clothing. Being hungry, they carry the sheaves.
11 Entre las hileras de olivos producen aceite; pisan las uvas, pero no tienen qué beber.
11 They make oil within the walls of these men. They tread wine presses, and suffer thirst.
12 De la ciudad llegan gemidos de los moribundos; los heridos piden ayuda, pero Dios no atiende su oración.
12 From out of the populous city, men groan. The soul of the wounded cries out, yet God doesn’t regard the folly.
13 Hay quienes odian la luz, no conocen sus caminos ni los siguen.
13 “These are of those who rebel against the light. They don’t know its ways, nor stay in its paths.
14 El asesino se levanta antes del amanecer para matar a los pobres y a los necesitados.
14 The murderer rises with the light. He kills the poor and needy. In the night he is like a thief.
15 El que desea a la esposa de otro espera el atardecer y piensa: «Nadie me verá»; se cubre el rostro. Por la noche también sale el ladrón.
15 The eye also of the adulterer waits for the twilight, saying, ‘No eye will see me.’ He disguises his face.
16 En la oscuridad abre agujeros en las paredes de las casas; durante el día se encierran, sin conocer la luz.
16 In the dark they dig through houses. They shut themselves up in the daytime. They don’t know the light.
17 Para ellos la medianoche es como la mañana; no les asustan los terrores de la oscuridad.
17 For the morning is to all of them like thick darkness, for they know the terrors of the thick darkness.
18 Pasan rápidamente sobre el agua. Su herencia queda maldita en la tierra y nadie va a pisar las uvas de sus viñedos.
18 “They are foam on the surface of the waters. Their portion is cursed on the earth. They don’t turn into the way of the vineyards.
19 Como el calor seca el agua de la nieve, así los pecadores bajan al lugar de los muertos.
19 Drought and heat consume the snow waters, so does Sheol those who have sinned.
20 La plaza de su ciudad ya no lo reconoce y nadie recuerda su nombre; lo arrancan como un árbol muerto.
20 The womb will forget him. The worm will feed sweetly on him. He will be no more remembered. Unrighteousness will be broken as a tree.
21 No trata con bondad a la viuda ni tiene compasión de su hijo.
21 He devours the barren who don’t bear. He shows no kindness to the widow.
22 Pero Dios, con su poder, prolonga la vida del fuerte; este vuelve a levantarse aunque ya no tenga esperanza de vivir.
22 Yet God preserves the mighty by his power. He rises up who has no assurance of life.
23 Dios le quita el miedo al peligro y lo sostiene; sus ojos vigilan su conducta.
23 God gives them security, and they rest in it. His eyes are on their ways.
24 Por un momento se elevan, pero luego desaparecen; los humillan y los arrancan como frutos, los cortan como espigas.
24 They are exalted; yet a little while, and they are gone. Yes, they are brought low, they are taken out of the way as all others, and are cut off as the tops of the ears of grain.
25 Si no es así, ¿quién puede demostrar que miento y que mis palabras no tienen valor?
25 If it isn’t so now, who will prove me a liar, and make my speech worth nothing?”
