1 “Do you know when mountain goats give birth? Have you watched the doe bear her fawn?
1 ¿CAZARÁS tú la presa para el león? ¿y saciarás el hambre de los leoncillos,
1 “Do you know the time when the mountain goats give birth? Do you watch when the doe bears fawns?
2 Can you count the months they are pregnant? Do you know the time they give birth?
2 Cuando están echados en las cuevas, ó se están en sus guaridas para acechar?
2 Can you count the months that they fulfill? Or do you know the time when they give birth?
3 They crouch down and bring forth their young; they deliver their newborn.
3 ¿Quién preparó al cuervo su alimento, cuando sus pollos claman á Dios, bullendo de un lado á otro por carecer de comida?
3 They bow themselves. They bear their young. They end their labor pains.
4 Their young ones thrive and grow up in the open field; they leave and do not return.
4 ¿Sabes tú el tiempo en que paren las cabras monteses? ¿ó miraste tú las ciervas cuando están pariendo?
4 Their young ones become strong. They grow up in the open field. They go out, and don’t return again.
5 Who set the wild donkey free? Who released the swift donkey from the harness?
5 ¿Contaste tú los meses de su preñez, y sabes el tiempo cuando han de parir?
5 “Who has set the wild donkey free? Or who has loosened the bonds of the swift donkey,
6 I made the wilderness his home and the salt flats his dwelling.
6 Encórvanse, hacen salir sus hijos, pasan sus dolores.
6 whose home I have made the wilderness, and the salt land his dwelling place?
7 He scorns the tumult of the city and never hears the shouts of a driver.
7 Sus hijos están sanos, crecen con el pasto: salen y no vuelven á ellas.
7 He scorns the tumult of the city, neither does he hear the shouting of the driver.
8 He roams the mountains for pasture, searching for any green thing.
8 ¿Quién echó libre al asno montés, y quién soltó sus ataduras?
8 The range of the mountains is his pasture. He searches after every green thing.
9 Will the wild ox consent to serve you? Will he stay by your manger at night?
9 Al cual yo puse casa en la soledad, y sus moradas en lugares estériles.
9 “Will the wild ox be content to serve you? Or will he stay by your feeding trough?
10 Can you hold him to the furrow with a harness? Will he plow the valleys behind you?
10 Búrlase de la multitud de la ciudad: no oye las voces del arriero.
10 Can you hold the wild ox in the furrow with his harness? Or will he till the valleys after you?
11 Can you rely on his great strength? Will you leave your hard work to him?
11 Lo oculto de los montes es su pasto, y anda buscando todo lo que está verde.
11 Will you trust him, because his strength is great? Or will you leave to him your labor?
12 Can you trust him to bring in your grain and gather it to your threshing floor?
12 ¿Querrá el unicornio servirte á ti, ni quedar á tu pesebre?
12 Will you confide in him, that he will bring home your seed, and gather the grain of your threshing floor?
13 The wings of the ostrich flap joyfully, but cannot match the pinions and feathers of the stork.
13 ¿Atarás tú al unicornio con su coyunda para el surco? ¿labrará los valles en pos de ti?
13 “The wings of the ostrich wave proudly, but are they the feathers and plumage of love?
14 For she leaves her eggs on the ground and lets them warm in the sand.
14 ¿Confiarás tú en él, por ser grande su fortaleza, y le fiarás tu labor?
14 For she leaves her eggs on the earth, warms them in the dust,
15 She forgets that a foot may crush them, or a wild animal may trample them.
15 ¿Fiarás de él que te tornará tu simiente, y que [la] allegará en tu era?
15 and forgets that the foot may crush them, or that the wild animal may trample them.
16 She treats her young harshly, as if not her own, with no concern that her labor was in vain.
16 ¿[Diste tú] hermosas alas al pavo real, ó alas y plumas al avestruz?
16 She deals harshly with her young ones, as if they were not hers. Though her labor is in vain, she is without fear,
17 For God has deprived her of wisdom; He has not endowed her with understanding.
17 El cual desampara en la tierra sus huevos, y sobre el polvo los calienta,
17 because God has deprived her of wisdom, neither has he imparted to her understanding.
18 Yet when she proudly spreads her wings, she laughs at the horse and its rider.
18 Y olvídase de que los pisará el pie, y que los quebrará bestia del campo.
18 When she lifts up herself on high, she scorns the horse and his rider.
19 Do you give strength to the horse or adorn his neck with a mane?
19 Endurécese para con sus hijos, como si no fuesen suyos, no temiendo que su trabajo haya sido en vano:
19 “Have you given the horse might? Have you clothed his neck with a quivering mane?
20 Do you make him leap like a locust, striking terror with his proud snorting?
20 Porque le privó Dios de sabiduría, y no le dió inteligencia.
20 Have you made him to leap as a locust? The glory of his snorting is awesome.
21 He paws in the valley and rejoices in his strength; he charges into battle.
21 Luego que se levanta en alto, búrlase del caballo y de su jinete.
21 He paws in the valley, and rejoices in his strength. He goes out to meet the armed men.
22 He laughs at fear, frightened of nothing; he does not turn back from the sword.
22 ¿Diste tú al caballo la fortaleza? ¿vestiste tú su cerviz de relincho?
22 He mocks at fear, and is not dismayed, neither does he turn back from the sword.
23 A quiver rattles at his side, along with a flashing spear and lance.
23 ¿Le intimidarás tú como á alguna langosta? El resoplido de su nariz es formidable:
23 The quiver rattles against him, the flashing spear and the javelin.
24 Trembling with excitement, he devours the distance; he cannot stand still when the ram’s horn sounds.
24 Escarba la tierra, alégrase en su fuerza, sale al encuentro de las armas:
24 He eats up the ground with fierceness and rage, neither does he stand still at the sound of the trumpet.
25 At the blast of the horn, he snorts with fervor. He catches the scent of battle from afar— the shouts of captains and the cry of war.
25 Hace burla del espanto, y no teme, ni vuelve el rostro delante de la espada.
25 As often as the trumpet sounds he snorts, ‘Aha!’ He smells the battle afar off, the thunder of the captains, and the shouting.
26 Does the hawk take flight by your understanding and spread his wings toward the south?
26 Contra él suena la aljaba, el hierro de la lanza y de la pica:
26 “Is it by your wisdom that the hawk soars, and stretches her wings toward the south?
27 Does the eagle soar at your command and make his nest on high?
27 Y él con ímpetu y furor escarba la tierra, sin importarle el sonido de la bocina;
27 Is it at your command that the eagle mounts up, and makes his nest on high?
28 He dwells on a cliff and lodges there; his stronghold is on a rocky crag.
28 [Antes como] que dice entre los clarines: ¡Ea!, y desde lejos huele la batalla, el grito de los capitanes, y la vocería.
28 On the cliff he dwells and makes his home, on the point of the cliff and the stronghold.
29 From there he spies out food; his eyes see it from afar.
29 ¿Vuela el gavilán por tu industria, y extiende hacia el mediodía sus alas?
29 From there he spies out the prey. His eyes see it afar off.
30 His young ones feast on blood; and where the slain are, there he is.”
30 ¿Se remonta el águila por tu mandamiento, y pone en alto su nido? Ella habita y está en la piedra, en la cumbre del peñasco y de la roca. Desde allí acecha la comida: sus ojos observan de muy lejos. Sus pollos chupan la sangre: y donde hubiere cadáveres, allí está. A más de eso respondió Jehová á Job, y dijo: ¿Es sabiduría contender con el Omnipotente? El que disputa con Dios, responda á esto. Y respondió Job á Jehová, y dijo: He aquí que yo soy vil, ¿qué te responderé? Mi mano pongo sobre mi boca. Una vez hablé, y no responderé: aun dos veces, mas no tornaré á hablar.
30 His young ones also suck up blood. Where the slain are, there he is.”
