JPS JPS Tanakh (1917)
RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909
1 At this also my heart trembleth, and is moved out of its place.
1 A ESTO también se espanta mi corazón, y salta de su lugar.
2 Hear attentively the noise of His voice, and the sound that goeth out of His mouth.
2 Oid atentamente su voz terrible, y el sonido que sale de su boca.
3 He sendeth it forth under the whole heaven, and His lightning unto the ends of the earth.
3 Debajo de todos los cielos lo dirige, y su luz hasta los fines de la tierra.
4 After it a voice roareth; He thundereth with the voice of His majesty; and He stayeth them not when His voice is heard.
4 Después de ella bramará el sonido, tronará él con la voz de su magnificencia; y aunque sea oída su voz, no los detiene.
5 God thundereth marvellously with His voice; great things doeth He, which we cannot comprehend.
5 Tronará Dios maravillosamente con su voz; él hace grandes cosas, que nosotros no entendemos.
6 For He saith to the snow: 'Fall thou on the earth'; likewise to the shower of rain, and to the showers of His mighty rain.
6 Porque á la nieve dice: Desciende á la tierra; también á la llovizna, y á los aguaceros de su fortaleza.
7 He sealeth up the hand of every man, that all men whom He hath made may know it.
7 Así hace retirarse á todo hombre, para que los hombres todos reconozcan su obra.
8 Then the beasts go into coverts, and remain in their dens.
8 La bestia se entrará en su escondrijo, y estaráse en sus moradas.
9 Out of the Chamber cometh the storm; and cold out of the north.
9 Del mediodía viene el torbellino, y el frío de los vientos del norte.
10 By the breath of God ice is given, and the breadth of the waters is straitened.
10 Por el soplo de Dios se da el hielo, y las anchas aguas son constreñidas.
11 Yea, He ladeth the thick cloud with moister, He spreadeth abroad the cloud of His lightning;
11 Regando también llega á disipar la densa nube, y con su luz esparce la niebla.
12 And they are turned round about by His guidance, that they may do whatsoever He commandeth them upon the face of the habitable world:
12 Asimismo por sus designios se revuelven las nubes en derredor, para hacer sobre la haz del mundo, en la tierra, lo que él les mandara.
13 Whether it be for correction, or for His earth, or for mercy, that He cause it to come.
13 Unas veces por azote, otras por causa de su tierra, otras por misericordia las hará parecer.
14 Hearken unto this, O Job; stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God.
14 Escucha esto, Job; repósate, y considera las maravillas de Dios.
15 Dost thou know how God enjoineth them, and causeth the lightning of His cloud to shine?
15 ¿Supiste tú cuándo Dios las ponía en concierto, y hacía levantar la luz de su nube?
16 Dost thou know the balancings of the clouds, the wondrous works of Him who is perfect in knowledge?
16 ¿Has tú conocido las diferencias de las nubes, las maravillas del Perfecto en sabiduría?
17 Thou whose garments are warm, when the earth is still by reason of the south wind;
17 ¿Por qué están calientes tus vestidos cuando se fija el [viento del] mediodía sobre la tierra?
18 Canst thou with Him spread out the sky, which is strong as a molten mirror?
18 ¿Extendiste tú con él los cielos, firmes como un espejo sólido?
19 Teach us what we shall say unto Him; for we cannot order our speech by reason of darkness.
19 Muéstranos qué le hemos de decir; [porque] nosotros no podemos componer [las ideas] á causa de las tinieblas.
20 Shall it be told Him that I would speak? Or should a man wish that he were swallowed up?
20 ¿Será preciso contarle cuando yo hablaré? Por más que el hombre razone, quedará como abismado.
21 And now men see not the light which is bright in the skies; but the wind passeth, and cleanseth them.
21 He aquí aún: no se puede mirar la luz esplendente en los cielos, luego que pasa el viento y los limpia,
22 Out of the north cometh golden splendour, about God is terrible majesty.
22 Viniendo de la parte del norte la dorada claridad. En Dios hay una majestad terrible.
23 The Almighty, whom we cannot find out, is excellent in power, yet to judgment and plenteous justice He doeth no violence.
23 El [es] Todopoderoso, al cual no alcanzamos, grande en potencia; y en juicio y en multitud de justicia no afligirá.
24 Men do therefore fear Him; He regardeth not any that are wise of heart.
24 Temerlo han por tanto los hombres: él no mira á los sabios de corazón.
