Job 24 Young's Literal Translation
Audio: World English Bible (WEB), read by Winfred W. Henson · About the recordings
1 Wherefore from the Mighty One Times have not been hidden, And those knowing Him have not seen His days.
1 PUESTO que no son ocultos los tiempos al Todopoderoso, ¿por qué los que le conocen no ven sus días?
2 The borders they reach, A drove they have taken violently away, Yea, they do evil.
2 Traspasan los términos, roban los ganados, y apaciéntanlos.
3 The ass of the fatherless they lead away, They take in pledge the ox of the widow,
3 Llévanse el asno de los huérfanos; prenden el buey de la viuda.
4 They turn aside the needy from the way, Together have hid the poor of the earth.
4 Hacen apartar del camino á los menesterosos: y todos los pobres de la tierra se esconden.
5 Lo, wild asses in a wilderness, They have gone out about their work, Seeking early for prey, A mixture for himself — food for young ones.
5 He aquí, como asnos monteses en el desierto, salen á su obra madrugando para robar; el desierto es mantenimiento de sus hijos.
6 In a field his provender they reap, And the vineyard of the wicked they glean.
6 En el campo siegan su pasto, y los impíos vendimian la viña [ajena].
7 The naked they cause to lodge Without clothing. And there is no covering in the cold.
7 Al desnudo hacen dormir sin ropa, y que en el frío no tenga cobertura.
8 From the inundation of hills they are wet, And without a refuge — have embraced a rock.
8 Con las avenidas de los montes se mojan, y abrazan las peñas sin tener abrigo.
9 They take violently away From the breast the orphan, And on the poor they lay a pledge.
9 Quitan el pecho á los huérfanos, y de sobre el pobre toman la prenda.
10 Naked, they have gone without clothing, And hungry — have taken away a sheaf.
10 Al desnudo hacen andar sin vestido, y á los hambrientos quitan los hacecillos.
11 Between their walls they make oil, Wine-presses they have trodden, and thirst.
11 De dentro de sus paredes exprimen el aceite, pisan los lagares, y mueren de sed.
12 Because of enmity men do groan, And the soul of pierced ones doth cry, And God doth not give praise.
12 De la ciudad gimen los hombres, y claman las almas de los heridos de muerte: mas Dios no puso estorbo.
13 They have been among rebellious ones of light, They have not discerned His ways, Nor abode in His paths.
13 Ellos son los que, rebeldes á la luz, nunca conocieron sus caminos, ni estuvieron en sus veredas.
14 At the light doth the murderer rise, He doth slay the poor and needy, And in the night he is as a thief.
14 A la luz se levanta el matador, mata al pobre y al necesitado, y de noche es como ladrón.
15 And the eye of an adulterer Hath observed the twilight, Saying, 'No eye doth behold me.' And he putteth the face in secret.
15 El ojo del adúltero está aguardando la noche, diciendo: No me verá nadie: y esconde su rostro.
16 He hath dug in the darkness — houses; By day they shut themselves up, They have not known light.
16 En las tinieblas minan las casas, que de día para sí señalaron; no conocen la luz.
17 When together, morning [is] to them death shade, When he discerneth the terrors of death shade.
17 Porque la mañana es á todos ellos como sombra de muerte; si son conocidos, terrores de sombra de muerte [los toman].
18 Light he [is] on the face of the waters, Vilified is their portion in the earth, He turneth not the way of vineyards.
18 Son instables más que la superficie de las aguas; su porción es maldita en la tierra; no andarán por el camino de las viñas.
19 Drought — also heat — consume snow-waters, Sheol [those who] have sinned.
19 La sequía y el calor arrebatan las aguas de la nieve; y el sepulcro á los pecadores.
20 Forget him doth the womb, Sweeten [on] him doth the worm, No more is he remembered, And broken as a tree is wickedness.
20 Olvidaráse de ellos el seno materno; de ellos sentirán los gusanos dulzura; nunca más habrá de ellos memoria, y como un árbol serán los impíos quebrantados.
21 Treating evil the barren [who] beareth not, And [to] the widow he doth no good,
21 A la mujer estéril que no paría, afligió; y á la viuda nunca hizo bien.
22 And hath drawn the mighty by his power, He riseth, and none believeth in life.
22 Mas á los fuertes adelantó con su poder: levantóse, y no se da por segura la vida.
23 He giveth to him confidence, and he is supported, And his eyes [are] on their ways.
23 Le dieron á crédito, y se afirmó: sus ojos están sobre los caminos de ellos.
24 High they were [for] a little, and they are not, And they have been brought low. As all [others] they are shut up, And as the head of an ear of corn cut off.
24 Fueron ensalzados por un poco, mas desaparecen, y son abatidos como cada cual: serán encerrados, y cortados como cabezas de espigas.
25 And if not now, who doth prove me a liar, And doth make of nothing my word?
25 Y si no, ¿quién me desmentirá ahora, ó reducirá á nada mis palabras?
