WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Zofar de Namat responde a Job:
1 Then Zophar, the Naamathite, answered,
2 «¿No ha de haber quien corte este torrente de palabras? La palabrería de un hombre, ¿prueba que tiene razón?
2 “Shouldn’t the multitude of words be answered? Should a man full of talk be justified?
3 ¿He de quedarme callado ante tus alardes? ¿Te burlarás sin que nadie te responda?
3 Should your boastings make men hold their peace? When you mock, will no man make you ashamed?
4 ¡Pretendes ser puro a los ojos de Dios!
4 For you say, ‘My doctrine is pure. I am clean in your eyes.’
5 ¡Cómo me gustaría que Dios hablara y te dijera lo que piensa!
5 But oh that God would speak, and open his lips against you,
6 ¡Que te mostrara tal cual eres; pues él conoce todo lo que has hecho! Escucha: Dios sin duda te está castigando mucho menos de lo que mereces.
6 that he would show you the secrets of wisdom! For true wisdom has two sides. Know therefore that God exacts of you less than your iniquity deserves.
7 »¿Conoces los pensamientos y propósitos de Dios? El mucho investigar, ¿te los revelará? ¿Estás capacitado para juzgar al Todopoderoso?
7 “Can you fathom the mystery of God? Or can you probe the limits of the Almighty?
8 Él es tan perfecto como alto es el cielo; y tú, ¿quién eres? Insondable es su pensamiento; ¿qué podrás tú saber en comparación con él?
8 They are high as heaven. What can you do? They are deeper than Sheol. What can you know?
9 Es más amplio que la tierra y más extenso que el mar.
9 Its measure is longer than the earth, and broader than the sea.
10 Si viene y te pone en un calabozo, y luego te llama a cuentas, ¿quién lo hará desistir?
10 If he passes by, or confines, or convenes a court, then who can oppose him?
11 Porque él conoce a fondo todas las faltas y pecados de la humanidad; sin escrutar, ve todos los pecados.
11 For he knows false men. He sees iniquity also, even though he doesn’t consider it.
12 El simple hombre tiene tantas probabilidades de ser sabio, como un borriquillo de nacer en forma de hombre.
12 An empty-headed man becomes wise when a man is born as a wild donkey’s colt.
13 »Antes de enfrentarte a Dios y extender hacia él tus manos, deja tus pecados y despójate de toda iniquidad.
13 “If you set your heart aright, stretch out your hands toward him.
14 Not in this translation
14 If iniquity is in your hand, put it far away. Don’t let unrighteousness dwell in your tents.
15 Sólo entonces, sin manchas de pecado que te ensucien, podrás marchar derecho hacia Dios sin temor.
15 Surely then you will lift up your face without spot. Yes, you will be steadfast, and will not fear,
16 Sólo entonces podrás olvidar tu desdicha. Todo eso quedará en el pasado.
16 for you will forget your misery. You will remember it like waters that have passed away.
17 Y no habrá nubarrones en tu vida; toda oscuridad se transformará en luminosa mañana.
17 Life will be clearer than the noonday. Though there is darkness, it will be as the morning.
18 Obtendrás valentía porque tendrás esperanza. Procederás con calma y reposarás seguro.
18 You will be secure, because there is hope. Yes, you will search, and will take your rest in safety.
19 Te acostarás sin temor y muchos buscarán tu ayuda.
19 Also you will lie down, and no one will make you afraid. Yes, many will court your favor.
20 Pero los malvados no hallarán escapatoria: su única esperanza está en la muerte».
20 But the eyes of the wicked will fail. They will have no way to flee. Their hope will be the giving up of the spirit.”
