2 “Do you think this is just? You say, ‘I am more righteous than God.’
2 ¿Piensas ser conforme á derecho esto [que] dijiste: Más justo soy yo que Dios?
2 “Do you think this to be your right, or do you say, ‘My righteousness is more than God’s,’
3 For you ask, ‘What does it profit me, and what benefit do I gain apart from sin?’
3 Porque dijiste: ¿Qué ventaja sacarás tú de ello? ¿ó qué provecho tendré de mi pecado?
3 that you ask, ‘What advantage will it be to you? What profit will I have, more than if I had sinned?’
4 I will reply to you and to your friends as well.
4 Yo te responderé razones, y á tus compañeros contigo.
4 I will answer you, and your companions with you.
5 Look to the heavens and see; gaze at the clouds high above you.
5 Mira á los cielos, y ve, y considera que las nubes son más altas que tú.
5 Look to the skies, and see. See the skies, which are higher than you.
6 If you sin, what do you accomplish against Him? If you multiply your transgressions, what do you do to Him?
6 Si pecares, ¿qué habrás hecho contra él? y si tus rebeliones se multiplicaren, ¿qué le harás tú?
6 If you have sinned, what effect do you have against him? If your transgressions are multiplied, what do you do to him?
7 If you are righteous, what do you give Him, or what does He receive from your hand?
7 Si fueres justo, ¿qué le darás á él? ¿ó qué recibirá de tu mano?
7 If you are righteous, what do you give him? Or what does he receive from your hand?
8 Your wickedness affects only a man like yourself, and your righteousness only a son of man.
8 Al hombre como tú [dañará] tu impiedad, y al hijo del hombre [aprovechará] tu justicia.
8 Your wickedness may hurt a man as you are, and your righteousness may profit a son of man.
9 Men cry out under great oppression; they plead for relief from the arm of the mighty.
9 A causa de la multitud de las violencias clamarán, y se lamentarán por el poderío de los grandes.
9 “By reason of the multitude of oppressions they cry out. They cry for help by reason of the arm of the mighty.
10 But no one asks, ‘Where is God my Maker, who gives us songs in the night,
10 Y ninguno dice: ¿Dónde está Dios mi Hacedor, que da canciones en la noche,
10 But no one says, ‘Where is God my Maker, who gives songs in the night,
11 who teaches us more than the beasts of the earth and makes us wiser than the birds of the air?’
11 Que nos enseña más que á las bestias de la tierra, y nos hace sabios más que las aves del cielo?
11 who teaches us more than the animals of the earth, and makes us wiser than the birds of the sky?’
12 There they cry out, but He does not answer, because of the pride of evil men.
12 Allí clamarán, y él no oirá, por la soberbia de los malos.
12 There they cry, but no one answers, because of the pride of evil men.
13 Surely God does not listen to empty pleas, and the Almighty does not take note of it.
13 Ciertamente Dios no oirá la vanidad, ni la mirará el Omnipotente.
13 Surely God will not hear an empty cry, neither will the Almighty regard it.
14 How much less, then, when you say that you do not see Him, that your case is before Him and you must wait for Him,
14 Aunque más digas, No lo mirará; haz juicio delante de él, y en él espera.
14 How much less when you say you don’t see him. The cause is before him, and you wait for him!
15 and further, that in His anger He has not punished or taken much notice of folly!
15 Mas ahora, porque en su ira no visita, ni conoce con rigor, por eso Job abrió su boca vanamente, y multiplica palabras sin sabiduría.
15 But now, because he has not visited in his anger, neither does he greatly regard arrogance,
16 So Job opens his mouth in vain and multiplies words without knowledge.”
16 Not in this translation
16 therefore Job opens his mouth with empty talk, and he multiplies words without knowledge.”
