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

11 Mis días pasaron. Mis planes se deshicieron, aun los anhelos de mi corazón

12 que solían cambiar la noche en día. La luz está después de la oscuridad.
12 They change the night into day, saying ‘The light is near’ in the presence of darkness.
13 Si espero, yo sé que el Seol es mi habitación. En la tenebrosidad tengo extendida mi cama.
13 If I look for Sheol as my house, if I have spread my couch in the darkness,
14 A la descomposición digo: ¡Padre mío! Y al gusano: ¡Madre mía, hermana mía!
14 if I have said to corruption, ‘You are my father,’ and to the worm, ‘My mother,’ and ‘My sister,’
15 ¿Dónde está entonces mi esperanza? ¿Quién verá mi bien?
15 where then is my hope? As for my hope, who will see it?
16 Descenderá conmigo al Seol y juntos bajaremos al polvo.
16 Shall it go down with me to the gates of Sheol, or descend together into the dust?”
