1 Τότε Ελιφάς ο Θαιμανίτης απεκρίθη και είπεν·
1 Y RESPONDIÓ Eliphaz el Temanita, y dijo:
1 Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered,
2 Εάν επιχειρισθώμεν να λαλήσωμεν προς σε, θέλεις δυσαρεστηθή; αλλά τις δύναται να κρατηθή από του να ομιλήση;
2 Si probáremos á hablarte, serte ha molesto; mas ¿quién podrá detener las palabras?
2 “If someone ventures to talk with you, will you be grieved? But who can withhold himself from speaking?
3 Ιδού, συ ενουθέτησας πολλούς· και χείρας αδυνάτους ενίσχυσας.
3 He aquí, tú enseñabas á muchos, y las manos flacas corroborabas;
3 Behold, you have instructed many, you have strengthened the weak hands.
4 Οι λόγοι σου υπεστήριξαν τους κλονιζομένους, και γόνατα κάμπτοντα ενεδυνάμωσας.
4 Al que vacilaba, enderezaban tus palabras, y esforzabas las rodillas que decaían.
4 Your words have supported him who was falling, you have made the feeble knees firm.
5 Τώρα δε ήλθεν επί σε τούτο, και βαρυθυμείς· σε εγγίζει, και ταράττεσαι.
5 Mas ahora que [el mal] sobre ti ha venido, te es duro; y cuando ha llegado hasta ti, te turbas.
5 But now it has come to you, and you faint. It touches you, and you are troubled.
6 Ο φόβος σου δεν είναι το θάρρος σου, και η ευθύτης των οδών σου η ελπίς σου;
6 ¿Es este tu temor, tu confianza, tu esperanza, y la perfección de tus caminos?
6 Isn’t your piety your confidence? Isn’t the integrity of your ways your hope?
7 Ενθυμήθητι, παρακαλώ· τις αθώος ων απωλέσθη; και που εξωλοθρεύθησαν οι ευθείς;
7 Recapacita ahora, ¿quién que fuera inocente se perdiera? y ¿en dónde los rectos fueron cortados?
7 “Remember, now, who ever perished, being innocent? Or where were the upright cut off?
8 Καθώς εγώ είδον, όσοι ηροτρίασαν ανομίαν και έσπειραν ασέβειαν, θερίζουσιν αυτάς·
8 Como yo he visto, los que aran iniquidad y siembran injuria, la siegan.
8 According to what I have seen, those who plow iniquity and sow trouble, reap the same.
9 εξολοθρεύονται υπό του φυσήματος του Θεού, και από της πνοής των μυκτήρων αυτού αφανίζονται·
9 Perecen por el aliento de Dios, y por el espíritu de su furor son consumidos.
9 By the breath of God they perish. By the blast of his anger are they consumed.
10 ο βρυγμός του λέοντος και η φωνή του αγρίου λέοντος και το γαυρίαμα των σκύμνων, εσβέσθησαν·
10 El bramido del león, y la voz del león, y los dientes de los leoncillos son quebrantados.
10 The roaring of the lion, and the voice of the fierce lion, the teeth of the young lions, are broken.
11 ο λέων απόλλυται δι' έλλειψιν θηράματος, και οι σκύμνοι της λεαίνας διασκορπίζονται.
11 El león viejo perece por falta de presa, y los hijos del león son esparcidos.
11 The old lion perishes for lack of prey. The cubs of the lioness are scattered abroad.
12 Και λόγος ήλθεν επ' εμέ κρυφίως, και το ωτίον μου έλαβέ τι παρ' αυτού.
12 El negocio también me era á mí oculto; mas mi oído ha percibido algo de ello.
12 “Now a thing was secretly brought to me. My ear received a whisper of it.
13 Εν μέσω των στοχασμών διά τα οράματα της νυκτός, ότε βαθύς ύπνος πίπτει επί τους ανθρώπους,
13 En imaginaciones de visiones nocturnas, cuando el sueño cae sobre los hombres,
13 In thoughts from the visions of the night, when deep sleep falls on men,
14 Φρίκη συνέλαβέ με και τρόμος, και μεγάλως τα οστά μου συνέσεισε.
14 Sobrevínome un espanto y un temblor, que estremeció todos mis huesos:
14 fear came on me, and trembling, which made all my bones shake.
15 Και πνεύμα διήλθεν απ' έμπροσθέν μου, αι τρίχες του σώματός μου ανεσηκώθησαν·
15 Y un espíritu pasó por delante de mí, que hizo se erizara el pelo de mi carne.
15 Then a spirit passed before my face. The hair of my flesh stood up.
16 εστάθη, αλλ' εγώ δεν διέκρινα την μορφήν αυτού· σχήμα εφάνη έμπροσθεν των οφθαλμών μου· ήκουσα λεπτόν φύσημα και φωνήν λέγουσαν,
16 Paróse un fantasma delante de mis ojos, cuyo rostro yo no conocí, y quedo, oí que decía:
16 It stood still, but I couldn’t discern its appearance. A form was before my eyes. Silence, then I heard a voice, saying,
17 Ο άνθρωπος θέλει είσθαι δικαιότερος του Θεού; θέλει είσθαι ο άνθρωπος καθαρώτερος του Ποιητού αυτού;
17 ¿Si será el hombre más justo que Dios? ¿si será el varón más limpio que el que lo hizo?
17 ‘Shall mortal man be more just than God? Shall a man be more pure than his Maker?
18 Ιδού, αυτός δεν εμπιστεύεται εις τους δούλους αυτού, και εν τοις αγγέλοις αυτού βλέπει ελάττωμα·
18 He aquí que en sus siervos no confía, y notó necedad en sus ángeles;
18 Behold, he puts no trust in his servants. He charges his angels with error.
19 πόσω μάλλον εις τους κατοικούντας οικίας πηλίνας, αίτινες έχουσι το θεμέλιον αυτών εν τω χώματι και αφανίζονται έμπροσθεν του σαρακίου;
19 ¡Cuánto más en los que habitan en casas de lodo, cuyo fundamento está en el polvo, y que serán quebrantados de la polilla!
19 How much more those who dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, who are crushed before the moth!
20 Από πρωΐ έως εσπέρας φθείρονται· χωρίς να νοήση τις, αφανίζονται διά παντός.
20 De la mañana á la tarde son quebrantados, y se pierden para siempre, sin haber quien lo considere.
20 Between morning and evening they are destroyed. They perish forever without any regarding it.
21 Το μεγαλείον αυτών το εν αυτοίς δεν παρέρχεται; Αποθνήσκουσιν, αλλ' ουχί εν σοφία.
21 ¿Su hermosura, no se pierde con ellos mismos? Mueren, y sin sabiduría.
21 Isn’t their tent cord plucked up within them? They die, and that without wisdom.’
