WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)

1 »Enfermo estoy y próximo a la muerte; el sepulcro está presto a recibirme.

1 “My spirit is consumed. My days are extinct and the grave is ready for me.

2 Estoy rodeado de burladores. Por todas partes los veo.

2 Surely there are mockers with me. My eye dwells on their provocation.

3 ¿No habrá en ninguna parte quien confirme mi inocencia? Pero tú, oh Dios, les has impedido comprender esto. ¡Ay! No los dejes triunfar.

3 “Now give a pledge. Be collateral for me with yourself. Who is there who will strike hands with me?

4 Not in this translation

4 For you have hidden their heart from understanding, therefore you will not exalt them.

5 Si aceptan soborno por denunciar a sus amigos, sus hijos quedarán ciegos.

5 He who denounces his friends for plunder, even the eyes of his children will fail.

6 »Dios me ha convertido en hazmerreír del pueblo; me escupen en la cara.

6 “But he has made me a byword of the people. They spit in my face.

7 Mis ojos están nublados de llorar y no soy sino sombra de lo que fui.

7 My eye also is dim by reason of sorrow. All my members are as a shadow.

8 Los varones rectos se asombran al verme. Pero un día los inocentes se alzarán por sobre los impíos;

8 Upright men will be astonished at this. The innocent will stir himself up against the godless.

9 los justos progresarán y marcharán adelante; los de corazón puro serán cada vez más vigorosos y fuertes.

9 Yet the righteous will hold to his way. He who has clean hands will grow stronger and stronger.

10 »En cuanto a ustedes, váyanse, se lo ruego; porque no veo ni uno sabio entre ustedes.

10 But as for you all, come back. I will not find a wise man among you.

11 Mis buenos días pasaron. Mis esperanzas han desaparecido. Los anhelos de mi corazón se han deshecho.

11 My days are past. My plans are broken off, as are the thoughts of my heart.

12 Dicen que la noche es día y el día, noche; ¡cómo pervierten la verdad!

12 They change the night into day, saying ‘The light is near’ in the presence of darkness.

13 »Si muero, saldré a las tinieblas y llamaré padre mío a la tumba y madre y hermana mía al gusano.

13 If I look for Sheol as my house, if I have spread my couch in the darkness,

14 Not in this translation

14 if I have said to corruption, ‘You are my father,’ and to the worm, ‘My mother,’ and ‘My sister,’

15 ¿Dónde, pues, está mi esperanza? ¿Hay quién pueda encontrarla?

15 where then is my hope? As for my hope, who will see it?

16 No, mi esperanza bajará conmigo al sepulcro. ¡Juntos reposaremos en el polvo!».

16 Shall it go down with me to the gates of Sheol, or descend together into the dust?”
