RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909
1 But Job, responding, said:
1 Y RESPONDIÓ Job y dijo:
2 I wish that my sins, for which I deserve wrath, and the calamity that I endure, were weighed out on a balance.
2 ¡Oh si pesasen al justo mi queja y mi tormento, y se alzasen igualmente en balanza!
3 Compared to the sand of the sea, they would appear heavier, and so my words are full of sorrow.
3 Porque pesaría aquél más que la arena del mar: y por tanto mis palabras son cortadas.
4 For the arrows of the Lord are in me, my spirit drinks of their indignation, and the terrors of the Lord are soldiers against me.
4 Porque las saetas del Todopoderoso están en mí, cuyo veneno bebe mi espíritu; y terrores de Dios me combaten.
5 Will the wild ass bray when he has grass? Or will the ox bellow when he stands before a full manger?
5 ¿Acaso gime el asno montés junto á la hierba? ¿muge el buey junto á su pasto?
6 Or can one eat bland food, which is not seasoned with salt? Or can anyone taste that which, if tasted, causes death?
6 ¿Comeráse lo desabrido sin sal? ¿ó habrá gusto en la clara del huevo?
7 The things that my soul was unwilling to touch before, now, because of anguish, are my foods.
7 Las cosas que mi alma no quería tocar, por los dolores son mi comida.
8 Who will grant that my petition may arrive and that God may bestow on me what I expect,
8 ¡Quién me diera que viniese mi petición, y que Dios [me] otorgase lo que espero;
9 and that he who, at first, had crushed me, will let loose his hand and cut me down?
9 Y que pluguiera á Dios quebrantarme; que soltara su mano, y me deshiciera!
10 And may this be my consolation, that in afflicting me with sorrow, although he might not be lenient with me, I still do not contradict the words of the Holy One.
10 Y sería aún mi consuelo, si me asaltase con dolor sin dar más tregua, que yo no he escondido las palabras del Santo.
11 For what is my strength, that I may continue? Or what is my goal, so that I may act patiently?
11 ¿Cuál es mi fortaleza para esperar aún? ¿y cuál mi fin para dilatar mi vida?
12 My strength is not the strength of stones, nor is my flesh made of bronze.
12 ¿Es mi fortaleza la de las piedras? ¿ó mi carne, es de acero?
13 Behold, there is no help for me in myself, and my loved ones also have withdrawn from me.
13 ¿No me ayudo cuanto puedo, y el poder me falta del todo?
14 He who takes away mercy from his friend, abandons the fear of the Lord.
14 El atribulado es consolado de su compañero: mas hase abandonado el temor del Omnipotente.
15 My brethren have disregarded me, like a torrent that passes swiftly through the steep valleys.
15 Mis hermanos han mentido cual arroyo: pasáronse como corrientes impetuosas,
16 Those who fear frost, snow will rush over them.
16 Que están escondidas por la helada, y encubiertas con nieve;
17 At that time, when they are scattered, they will perish, and when it becomes hot, they will be freed from their place.
17 Que al tiempo del calor son deshechas, y en calentándose, desaparecen de su lugar;
18 The paths of their steps are entangled; they will walk in vain and will perish.
18 Apártanse de la senda de su rumbo, van menguando y piérdense.
19 Consider the paths of Thema, the ways of Saba, and wait a little while.
19 Miraron los caminantes de Temán, los caminantes de Saba esperaron en ellas:
20 They have been thrown into confusion, just as I had hoped; they have even come to me and are overwhelmed with shame.
20 [Mas] fueron avergonzados por su esperanza; porque vinieron hasta ellas, y halláronse confusos.
21 Now you have arrived, and merely by seeing my affliction, you are afraid.
21 Ahora ciertamente como ellas sois vosotros: que habéis visto el tormento, y teméis.
22 Did I say: “Bring to me and give to me from your necessities?”
22 ¿Os he dicho yo: Traedme, y pagad por mí de vuestra hacienda;
23 or, “Free me from the hand of the enemy and rescue me from the hand of the strong?”
23 Y libradme de la mano del opresor, y redimidme del poder de los violentos?
24 Teach me, and I will be silent, and if by chance I have been ignorant of anything, instruct me.
24 Enseñadme, y yo callaré: y hacedme entender en qué he errado.
25 Why have you diminished the words of truth, when there is none of you who is able to offer proof against me?
25 ¡Cuán fuertes son las palabras de rectitud! Mas ¿qué reprende el que reprende de vosotros?
26 You prepare speeches as so much noise, and you offer words into the wind.
26 ¿Pensáis censurar palabras, y los discursos de un desesperado, que son como el viento?
27 You encroach upon the orphan, and you strive to undermine your friend.
27 También os arrojáis sobre el huérfano, y hacéis hoyo delante de vuestro amigo.
28 Such is true, so finish what you have begun. Listen closely, and see if I lie.
28 Ahora pues, si queréis, mirad en mí, y [ved] si miento delante de vosotros.
29 Respond, I beg you, without contention, and, speaking what is just, pass judgment.
29 Tornad ahora, y no haya iniquidad; volved aún [á considerar] mi justicia en esto.
30 And you will not find iniquity on my tongue, nor will foolishness resound in my throat.
30 ¿Hay iniquidad en mi lengua? ¿no puede mi paladar discernir las cosas depravadas?
