1 And his three friends also ceased any longer to answer Job: for Job was righteous before them.
1 Y CESARON estos tres varones de responder á Job, por cuanto él era justo en sus ojos.
2 Then Elius the son of Barachiel, the Buzite, of the kindred of Ram, of the country of Ausis, was angered: and he was very angry with Job, because he justified himself before the Lord.
2 Entonces Eliú hijo de Barachêl, Bucita,, de la familia de Ram, se enojó con furor contra Job: enojóse con furor, por cuanto justificaba su vida más que á Dios.
3 And he was also very angry with [his] three friends, because they were not able to return answers to Job, yet set him down for an ungodly man.
3 Enojóse asimismo con furor contra sus tres amigos, porque no hallaban qué responder, aunque habían condenado á Job.
4 But Elius had forborne to give an answer to Job, because they were older than he.
4 Y Eliú había esperado á Job en la disputa, porque eran más viejos de días que él.
5 And Elius saw that there was no answer in the mouth of the three men; and he was angered in his wrath.
5 Empero viendo Eliú que no había respuesta en la boca de aquellos tres varones, su furor se encendió.
6 And Elius the Buzite the son of Barachiel answered and said, I am younger in age, and ye are elder; wherefore I kept silence, fearing to declare to you my own knowledge.
6 Y respondió Eliú hijo de Barachêl, Bucita, y dijo: Yo soy menor de días, y vosotros viejos; he tenido por tanto miedo, y temido declararos mi opinión.
7 And I said, It is not time that speaks, though in many years [men] know wisdom:
7 Yo decía: Los días hablarán, y la muchedumbre de años declarará sabiduría.
8 but there is a spirit in mortals; and the inspiration of the Almighty is that which teaches.
8 Ciertamente espíritu hay en el hombre, é inspiración del Omnipotente los hace que entiendan.
9 The long-lived are not wise [as such]; neither do the aged know judgment.
9 No los grandes son los sabios, ni los viejos entienden el derecho.
10 Wherefore I said, Hear me, and I will tell you what I know.
10 Por tanto yo dije: Escuchadme; declararé yo también mi sabiduría.
11 Hearken to my words; for I will speak in your hearing, until ye shall have tried [the matter] with words:
11 He aquí yo he esperado á vuestras razones, he escuchado vuestros argumentos, en tanto que buscabais palabras.
12 and I shall understand as far as you; and, behold, there was no one of you that answered Job his words in argument,
12 Os he pues prestado atención, y he aquí que no hay de vosotros quien redarguya á Job, y responda á sus razones.
13 lest ye should say, We have found that we have added wisdom to the Lord.
13 Porque no digáis: Nosotros hemos hallado sabiduría: lanzólo Dios, no el hombre.
14 And ye have commissioned a man to speak such words.
14 Ahora bien, Job no enderezó á mí sus palabras, ni yo le responderé con vuestras razones.
15 They were afraid, they answered no longer; they gave up their speaking.
15 Espantáronse, no respondieron más: fuéronseles los razonamientos.
16 I waited, (for I had not spoken,) because they stood still, they answered not.
16 Yo pues he esperado, porque no hablaban, antes pararon, y no respondieron más.
17 And Elius continued, and said, I will again speak,
17 Por eso yo también responderé mi parte, también yo declararé mi juicio.
18 for I am full of words, for the spirit of my belly destroys me.
18 Porque lleno estoy de palabras, y el espíritu de mi vientre me constriñe.
19 And my belly is as a skin of sweet wine bound up [and] ready to burst; or as a brazier's labouring bellows.
19 De cierto mi vientre está como el vino que no tiene respiradero, y se rompe como odres nuevos.
20 I will speak, that I may open my lips and relieve myself.
20 Hablaré pues y respiraré; abriré mis labios, y responderé.
21 For truly I will not be awed because of man, nor indeed will I be confounded before a mortal.
21 No haré ahora acepción de personas, ni usaré con hombre de lisonjeros títulos.
22 For I know not how to respect persons: and if otherwise, even the moths would eat me.
22 Porque no sé hablar lisonjas: [de otra manera] en breve mi Hacedor me consuma.
