RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909

1 My spirit is consumed, and my days are over; the grave is ready for me.

1 MI ALIENTO está corrompido, acórtanse mis días, y me está aparejado el sepulcro.

2 Surely there are mockers with me; my eye must always see their provocation.

2 No hay conmigo sino escarnecedores, en cuya acrimonia se detienen mis ojos.

3 Give now a pledge, be a guarantee for me with yourself; who else is there who will help me?

3 Pon ahora, dame fianza para [litigar] contigo: ¿quién tocará ahora mi mano?

4 For you, God, have kept their hearts from understanding; therefore, you will not exalt them over me.

4 Porque [á éstos] has tú escondido su corazón de inteligencia: por tanto, no [los] ensalzarás.

5 He who denounces his friends for a reward, the eyes of his children will fail.

5 El que denuncia lisonjas á sus prójimos, los ojos de sus hijos desfallezcan.

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

6 El me ha puesto por parábola de pueblos, y delante [de ellos] he sido como tamboril.

7 My eye is also dim because of sorrow; all my body parts are as thin as shadows.

7 Y mis ojos se oscurecieron de desabrimiento, y mis pensamientos todos son como sombra.

8 Upright men will be stunned by this; the innocent man will stir himself up against godless men.

8 Los rectos se maravillarán de esto, y el inocente se levantará contra el hipócrita.

9 The righteous man will keep to his way; he who has clean hands will grow stronger and stronger.

9 No obstante, proseguirá el justo su camino, y el limpio de manos aumentará la fuerza.

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

10 Mas volved todos vosotros, y venid ahora, que no hallaré entre vosotros sabio.

11 My days are past; my plans are shattered, and so are the desires of my heart.

11 Pasáronse mis días, fueron arrancados mis pensamientos, los designios de mi corazón.

12 These people, these mockers, change the night into day; light is near to darkness.

12 Pusieron la noche por día, y la luz se acorta delante de las tinieblas.

13 If the only home I hope for is Sheol; and if I have spread my couch in the darkness;

13 Si yo espero, el sepulcro es mi casa: haré mi cama en las tinieblas.

14 and if I have said to the pit, 'You are my father,' and to the worm, 'You are my mother or my sister,'

14 A la huesa tengo dicho: Mi padre eres tú; á los gusanos: Mi madre y mi hermana.

15 where then is my hope? As for my hope, who can see any?

15 ¿Dónde pues estará ahora mi esperanza? y mi esperanza ¿quién la verá?

16 Will hope go down with me to the gates of Sheol when we descend to the dust?”

16 A los rincones de la huesa descenderán, y juntamente descansarán en el polvo.
