1 And Bildad the Shuhite answers and says:
1 Y RESPONDIÓ Bildad Suhita, y dijo:
2 “When do you set an end to words? Consider, and afterward we speak.
2 ¿Cuándo pondréis fin á las palabras? Entended, y después hablemos.
3 Why have we been reckoned as livestock? We have been defiled in your eyes!
3 ¿Por qué somos tenidos por bestias, y en vuestros ojos somos viles?
4 He is tearing himself in his anger. Is earth forsaken for your sake? And is a rock removed from its place?
4 Oh tú, que despedazas tu alma con tu furor, ¿será dejada la tierra por tu causa, y serán traspasadas de su lugar las peñas?
5 Also, the light of the wicked is extinguished. And there does not shine a spark of his fire.
5 Ciertamente la luz de los impíos será apagada, y no resplandecerá la centella de su fuego.
6 The light has been dark in his tent, || And his lamp over him is extinguished.
6 La luz se oscurecerá en su tienda, y apagaráse sobre él su lámpara.
7 The steps of his strength are restricted, || And his own counsel casts him down.
7 Los pasos de su pujanza serán acortados, y precipitarálo su mismo consejo.
8 For he is sent into a net by his own feet, || And he habitually walks on a snare.
8 Porque red será echada en sus pies, y sobre red andará.
9 A trap seizes on the heel, || The designing prevails over him.
9 Lazo prenderá [su] calcañar: afirmaráse la trampa contra él.
10 His cord is hidden in the earth, || And his trap on the path.
10 Su cuerda está escondida en la tierra, y su torzuelo sobre la senda.
11 Terrors have terrified him all around, || And they have scattered him—at his feet.
11 De todas partes lo asombrarán temores, y haránle huir desconcertado.
12 His sorrow is hungry, || And calamity is ready at his side.
12 Su fuerza será hambrienta, y á su lado estará aparejado quebrantamiento.
13 It consumes the parts of his skin, || Death’s firstborn consumes his parts.
13 El primogénito de la muerte comerá los ramos de su piel, y devorará sus miembros.
14 His confidence is drawn from his tent, || And it causes him to step to the king of terrors.
14 Su confianza será arrancada de su tienda, y harále esto llevar al rey de los espantos.
15 It dwells in his tent—out of his provender, || Sulfur is scattered over his habitation.
15 En su tienda morará como si no fuese suya: piedra azufre será esparcida sobre su morada.
16 From beneath his roots are dried up, || And from above his crop is cut off.
16 Abajo se secarán sus raíces, y arriba serán cortadas sus ramas.
17 His memorial has perished from the land, || And he has no name on the street.
17 Su memoria perecerá de la tierra, y no tendrá nombre por las calles.
18 They thrust him from light to darkness, || And cast him out from the habitable earth.
18 De la luz será lanzado á las tinieblas, y echado fuera del mundo.
19 He has no continuator, || Nor successor among his people, || And none is remaining in his dwellings.
19 No tendrá hijo ni nieto en su pueblo, ni quien [le] suceda en sus moradas.
20 At this day, those [in the] west have been astonished, || And those [in the] east have taken fright.
20 Sobre su día se espantarán los por venir, como ocupó el pavor á los que fueron antes.
21 Only these [are] dwelling places of the perverse, || And this [is] the place God has not known.”
21 Ciertamente tales son las moradas del impío, y este será el lugar del que no conoció á Dios.
