Job 10 Unlocked Literal Bible
Audio: World English Bible (WEB), read by Winfred W. Henson · About the recordings
1 I am weary of my life; I will give free expression to my complaint; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.
1 ESTÁ mi alma aburrida de mi vida: daré yo suelta á mi queja sobre mí, hablaré con amargura de mi alma.
2 I will say to God, 'Do not merely condemn me; show me why you accuse me.
2 Diré á Dios: no me condenes; hazme entender por qué pleiteas conmigo.
3 Is it good to you that you should oppress me, to despise the work of your hands while you smile on the plans of the wicked?
3 ¿Parécete bien que oprimas, que deseches la obra de tus manos, y que resplandezcas sobre el consejo de los impíos?
4 Do you have eyes of flesh? Do you see like a man sees?
4 ¿Tienes tú ojos de carne? ¿ves tú como ve el hombre?
5 Are your days like the days of mankind or your years like the years of people,
5 ¿Son tus días como los días del hombre, ó tus años como los tiempos humanos,
6 that you inquire after my iniquity and search after my sin,
6 Para que inquieras mi iniquidad, y busques mi pecado,
7 although you know I am not guilty and there is no one who can rescue me from your hand?
7 Sobre saber tú que no soy impío, y que no hay quien de tu mano libre?
8 Your hands have framed and fashioned me together round about, yet you are destroying me.
8 Tus manos me formaron y me compusieron todo en contorno: ¿y así me deshaces?
9 Call to mind, I beg you, that you have fashioned me like clay; will you bring me into dust again?
9 Acuérdate ahora que como á lodo me diste forma: ¿y en polvo me has de tornar?
10 Have you not poured me out like milk and curdled me like cheese?
10 ¿No me fundiste como leche, y como un queso me cuajaste?
11 You have clothed me with skin and flesh and knit me together with bones and sinews.
11 Vestísteme de piel y carne, y cubrísteme de huesos y nervios.
12 You have granted me life and covenant faithfulness; your help has guarded my spirit.
12 Vida y misericordia me concediste, y tu visitación guardó mi espíritu.
13 Yet these things you hid in your heart— I know that this is what you were thinking:
13 Y estas cosas tienes guardadas en tu corazón; yo sé que esto está cerca de ti.
14 that if I sinned, you would notice it; you would not acquit me of my iniquity.
14 Si pequé, tú me has observado, y no me limpias de mi iniquidad.
15 If I have acted wickedly, woe to me; and even if I acted righteously, I could not lift up my head, since I am filled with disgrace— see my affliction!
15 Si fuere malo, ¡ay de mí! y si fuere justo, no levantaré mi cabeza, estando harto de deshonra, y de verme afligido.
16 If my head were lifted up, you would stalk me like a lion; and again you would show yourself with marvellous acts of power against me.
16 Y subirá de punto, [pues] me cazas como á león, y tornas á hacer en mí maravillas.
17 You bring new witnesses against me and increase your anger against me; you attack me with fresh armies.
17 Renuevas contra mí tus plagas, y aumentas conmigo tu furor, remudándose sobre mí ejércitos.
18 Why, then, have you brought me out of the womb? I wish I had given up my spirit and that no eye had ever seen me.
18 ¿Por qué me sacaste de la matriz? Habría yo espirado, y no me vieran ojos.
19 I would have been as though I had never existed; I would have been carried from the womb to the grave.
19 Fuera, como si nunca hubiera sido, llevado desde el vientre á la sepultura.
20 Are not my days only a few? Stop then, let me alone, so that I may have a little rest
20 ¿No son mis días poca cosa? Cesa pues, y déjame, para que me conforte un poco.
21 before I go from where I will not return, to the land of darkness and of the shadow of death,
21 Antes que vaya para no volver, á la tierra de tinieblas y de sombra de muerte;
22 the land that is as dark as midnight, the land of the shadow of death, without any order, where the light is like midnight.'”
22 Tierra de oscuridad, lóbrega como sombra de muerte, sin orden, y que aparece como [la] oscuridad [misma].

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Who knitted us with sinews and bones, and clothed us with skin and flesh, and, as soon as the child was born, brought streams of milk out of the breasts?
