1 Pero ahora se burlan de mí hombres más jóvenes que yo, cuyos padres no habría puesto ni con los perros de mis rebaños.
1 “But now those who are younger than I have me in derision, whose fathers I considered unworthy to put with my sheep dogs.
2 ¿De qué me serviría la fuerza de sus manos, si ya han perdido todo vigor?
2 Of what use is the strength of their hands to me, men in whom ripe age has perished?
3 El hambre los consume; muerden la tierra seca y solo encuentran esperanza de vivir en el desierto.
3 They are gaunt from lack and famine. They gnaw the dry ground, in the gloom of waste and desolation.
4 Arrancan hojas saladas entre los matorrales y se alimentan de raíces.
4 They pluck salt herbs by the bushes. The roots of the broom tree are their food.
5 Los expulsan de sus ciudades y les gritan como a ladrones.
5 They are driven out from among men. They cry after them as after a thief,
6 Tienen que refugiarse en los barrancos, en agujeros de la tierra y de las rocas.
6 so that they live in frightful valleys, and in holes of the earth and of the rocks.
7 Rebuznan entre los matorrales y se amontonan bajo los espinos.
7 They bray among the bushes. They are gathered together under the nettles.
8 Son hijos de hombres despreciados y sin nombre, expulsados de la tierra.
8 They are children of fools, yes, children of wicked men. They were flogged out of the land.
9 Ahora cantan canciones sobre mí y soy motivo de vergüenza para ellos.
9 “Now I have become their song. Yes, I am a byword to them.
10 Les doy asco; se alejan de mí y me deshonran.
10 They abhor me, they stand aloof from me, and don’t hesitate to spit in my face.
11 Dios ha aflojado la cuerda de mi arco y me ha avergonzado; ha derribado mi bandera ante mí.
11 For he has untied his cord, and afflicted me; and they have thrown off restraint before me.
12 Sus guerreros se forman en filas y levantan caminos para venir a destruirme.
12 On my right hand rise the rabble. They thrust aside my feet. They cast their ways of destruction up against me.
13 Destrozan mis caminos para acabar conmigo; sus arqueros me rodean.
13 They mar my path. They promote my destruction without anyone’s help.
14 Entran como por una gran abertura en la muralla y la fuerza de su ataque me derriba.
14 As through a wide breach they come. They roll themselves in amid the ruin.
15 Me invaden los terrores; mi esperanza se va como el viento y mi bienestar, como una nube.
15 Terrors have turned on me. They chase my honor as the wind. My welfare has passed away as a cloud.
16 Ahora mi vida se derrama dentro de mí; me alcanzan los días de sufrimiento.
16 “Now my soul is poured out within me. Days of affliction have taken hold of me.
17 La carne se me ha consumido hasta los huesos, que no me dejan descansar; mis dolores no terminan.
17 In the night season my bones are pierced in me, and the pains that gnaw me take no rest.
18 Dios me agarra la ropa con fuerza y me tira del cuello de la túnica.
18 My garment is disfigured by great force. It binds me about as the collar of my tunic.
19 Me ha arrojado al suelo y me he vuelto como polvo.
19 He has cast me into the mire. I have become like dust and ashes.
20 Te pido ayuda, pero no respondes; no atiendes mi oración.
20 I cry to you, and you do not answer me. I stand up, and you gaze at me.
21 Te has vuelto cruel conmigo; me golpeas con toda la fuerza de tu mano.
21 You have turned to be cruel to me. With the might of your hand you persecute me.
22 Me levantas y me llevas en las alas del viento; la tormenta me destroza.
22 You lift me up to the wind, and drive me with it. You dissolve me in the storm.
23 Sé que me llevarás a la muerte, al lugar de reunión destinado a todos los seres vivos.
23 For I know that you will bring me to death, to the house appointed for all living.
24 ¿No he tendido la mano para ayudar al pobre? ¿No lo he salvado en su angustia?
24 “However doesn’t one stretch out a hand in his fall? Or in his calamity therefore cry for help?
25 ¿No he llorado por los oprimidos? ¿No he sentido tristeza por el necesitado?
25 Didn’t I weep for him who was in trouble? Wasn’t my soul grieved for the needy?
26 Esperaba el bien y llegó la desgracia; esperaba la luz y llegó la oscuridad.
26 When I looked for good, then evil came. When I waited for light, darkness came.
27 La angustia me sacude y no me deja descansar; me han alcanzado los días de sufrimiento.
27 My heart is troubled, and doesn’t rest. Days of affliction have come on me.
28 Ando vestido de oscuro, sin consuelo; me levanto en la plaza y pido ayuda.
28 I go mourning without the sun. I stand up in the assembly, and cry for help.
29 Me he vuelto hermano de los chacales y compañero de los avestruces.
29 I am a brother to jackals, and a companion to ostriches.
30 Mi piel se ennegrece y se desprende; mis huesos arden con la fiebre.
30 My skin grows black and peels from me. My bones are burned with heat.
31 Mi música se ha vuelto tristeza y el sonido de mi flauta, llanto.
31 Therefore my harp has turned to mourning, and my pipe into the voice of those who weep.
