RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909

WEB World English Bible (clásica, con deuterocanónicos)

1 Have no envy for evil men, or any desire to be with them:

1 NO tengas envidia de los hombres malos, ni desees estar con ellos:

1 Don’t be envious of evil men, neither desire to be with them;

2 For the purposes of their hearts are destruction, and their lips are talking of trouble.

2 Porque su corazón piensa en robar, é iniquidad hablan sus labios.

2 for their hearts plot violence and their lips talk about mischief.

3 The building of a house is by wisdom, and by reason it is made strong:

3 Con sabiduría se edificará la casa, y con prudencia se afirmará:

3 Through wisdom a house is built; by understanding it is established;

4 And by knowledge its rooms are full of all dear and pleasing things.

4 Y con ciencia se henchirán las cámaras de todo bien preciado y agradable.

4 by knowledge the rooms are filled with all rare and beautiful treasure.

5 A wise man is strong; and a man of knowledge makes strength greater.

5 El hombre sabio es fuerte; y de pujante vigor el hombre docto.

5 A wise man has great power. A knowledgeable man increases strength,

6 For by wise guiding you will overcome in war: and in a number of wise guides there is salvation.

6 Porque con ingenio harás la guerra: y la salud está en la multitud de consejeros.

6 for by wise guidance you wage your war, and victory is in many advisors.

7 Wisdom is outside the power of the foolish: he keeps his mouth shut in the public place.

7 Alta está para el insensato la sabiduría: en la puerta no abrirá él su boca.

7 Wisdom is too high for a fool. He doesn’t open his mouth in the gate.

8 He whose purposes are bad will be named a man of evil designs.

8 Al que piensa mal hacer le llamarán hombre de malos pensamientos.

8 One who plots to do evil will be called a schemer.

9 The purpose of the foolish is sin: and the hater of authority is disgusting to others.

9 El pensamiento del necio es pecado: y abominación á los hombres el escarnecedor.

9 The schemes of folly are sin. The mocker is detested by men.

10 If you give way in the day of trouble, your strength is small.

10 Si fueres flojo en el día de trabajo, tu fuerza será reducida.

10 If you falter in the time of trouble, your strength is small.

11 Be the saviour of those who are given up to death, and do not keep back help from those who are slipping to destruction.

11 Si dejares de librar los que son tomados para la muerte, y los que son llevados al degolladero;

11 Rescue those who are being led away to death! Indeed, hold back those who are staggering to the slaughter!

12 If you say, See, we had no knowledge of this: does not the tester of hearts give thought to it? and he who keeps your soul, has he no knowledge of it? and will he not give to every man the reward of his work?

12 Si dijeres: Ciertamente no lo supimos; ¿no lo entenderá el que pesa los corazones? El que mira por tu alma, él lo conocerá, y dará al hombre según sus obras.

12 If you say, “Behold, we didn’t know this,” doesn’t he who weighs the hearts consider it? He who keeps your soul, doesn’t he know it? Shall he not give to every man according to his work?

13 My son, take honey, for it is good; and the flowing honey, which is sweet to your taste:

13 Come, hijo mío, de la miel, porque es buena, y del panal dulce á tu paladar:

13 My son, eat honey, for it is good, the droppings of the honeycomb, which are sweet to your taste;

14 So let your desire be for wisdom: if you have it, there will be a future, and your hope will not be cut off.

14 Tal será el conocimiento de la sabiduría á tu alma: si la hallares tendrá recompensa, y al fin tu esperanza no será cortada.

14 so you shall know wisdom to be to your soul. If you have found it, then there will be a reward: Your hope will not be cut off.

15 Do not keep a secret watch, O evil-doer, against the fields of the upright man, or send destruction on his resting-place:

15 Oh impío, no aceches la tienda del justo, no saquees su cámara;

15 Don’t lay in wait, wicked man, against the habitation of the righteous. Don’t destroy his resting place;

16 For an upright man, after falling seven times, will get up again: but trouble is the downfall of the evil.

16 Porque siete veces cae el justo, y se torna á levantar; mas los impíos caerán en el mal.

16 for a righteous man falls seven times and rises up again, but the wicked are overthrown by calamity.

17 Do not be glad at the fall of your hater, and let not your heart have joy at his downfall:

17 Cuando cayere tu enemigo, no te huelgues; y cuando tropezare, no se alegre tu corazón:

17 Don’t rejoice when your enemy falls. Don’t let your heart be glad when he is overthrown,

18 For fear that the Lord may see it, and it may be evil in his eyes, and his wrath may be turned away from him.

18 Porque Jehová no lo mire, y le desagrade, y aparte de sobre él su enojo.

18 lest Yahweh see it, and it displease him, and he turn away his wrath from him.

19 Do not be troubled because of evil-doers, or have envy of sinners:

19 No te entrometas con los malignos, ni tengas envidia de los impíos;

19 Don’t fret yourself because of evildoers, neither be envious of the wicked;

20 For there will be no future for the evil man; the light of sinners will be put out.

20 Porque para el malo no habrá [buen] fin, y la candela de los impíos será apagada.

20 for there will be no reward to the evil man. The lamp of the wicked will be snuffed out.

21 My son, go in fear of the Lord and the king: have nothing to do with those who are in high positions:

21 Teme á Jehová, hijo mío, y al rey; no te entrometas con los veleidosos:

21 My son, fear Yahweh and the king. Don’t join those who are rebellious,

22 For their downfall will come suddenly; and who has knowledge of the destruction of those in high positions?

22 Porque su quebrantamiento se levantará de repente; y el quebrantamiento de ambos, ¿quién lo comprende?

22 for their calamity will rise suddenly. Who knows what destruction may come from them both?

23 These are more sayings of the wise: To have respect for a person's position when judging is not good.

23 También estas cosas [pertenecen] á los sabios. Tener respeto á personas en el juicio no es bueno.

23 These also are sayings of the wise: To show partiality in judgment is not good.

24 He who says to the evil-doer, You are upright, will be cursed by peoples and hated by nations.

24 El que dijere al malo, Justo eres, los pueblos lo maldecirán, y le detestarán las naciones:

24 He who says to the wicked, “You are righteous,” peoples will curse him, and nations will abhor him—

25 But those who say sharp words to him will have delight, and a blessing of good will come on them.

25 Mas los que [lo] reprenden, serán agradables, y sobre ellos vendrá bendición de bien.

25 but it will go well with those who convict the guilty, and a rich blessing will come on them.

26 He gives a kiss with his lips who gives a right answer.

26 Besados serán los labios del que responde palabras rectas.

26 An honest answer is like a kiss on the lips.

27 Put your work in order outside, and make it ready in the field; and after that, see to the building of your house.

27 Apresta tu obra de afuera, y disponla en tu heredad; y después edificarás tu casa.

27 Prepare your work outside, and get your fields ready. Afterwards, build your house.

28 Do not be a violent witness against your neighbour, or let your lips say what is false.

28 No seas sin causa testigo contra tu prójimo; y no lisonjees con tus labios.

28 Don’t be a witness against your neighbor without cause. Don’t deceive with your lips.

29 Say not, I will do to him as he has done to me; I will give the man the reward of his work.

29 No digas: Como me hizo, así le haré; daré el pago al hombre según su obra.

29 Don’t say, “I will do to him as he has done to me; I will repay the man according to his work.”

30 I went by the field of the hater of work, and by the vine-garden of the man without sense;

30 Pasé junto á la heredad del hombre perezoso, y junto á la viña del hombre falto de entendimiento;

30 I went by the field of the sluggard, by the vineyard of the man void of understanding.

31 And it was all full of thorns, and covered with waste plants, and its stone wall was broken down.

31 Y he aquí que por toda ella habían ya crecido espinas, ortigas habían ya cubierto su haz, y su cerca de piedra estaba ya destruída.

31 Behold, it was all grown over with thorns. Its surface was covered with nettles, and its stone wall was broken down.

32 Then looking at it, I gave thought: I saw, and I got teaching from it.

32 Y yo miré, y púse[lo] en mi corazón: vi[lo], y tomé consejo.

32 Then I saw, and considered well. I saw, and received instruction:

33 A little sleep, a little rest, a little folding of the hands in sleep:

33 Un poco de sueño, cabeceando otro poco, poniendo mano sobre mano otro poco para dormir;

33 a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep,

34 So loss will come on you like an outlaw, and your need like an armed man.

34 Así vendrá como caminante tu necesidad, y tu pobreza como hombre de escudo.

34 so your poverty will come as a robber and your want as an armed man.

Cita 24:16 Augustine of Hippo, The City of God (Book XI, Chapters 30–33)
On this account it is often put for all numbers together, as, "A just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again," --that is, let him fall never so often, he will not perish (and this was meant to be understood not of sins, but of afflictions conducing to lowliness).

Cita 24:16 Augustine of Hippo, Expositions on the Psalms (Psalm CXIX)
For no other reason it was said, "a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again:" that is, the just man perisheth not, though brought low in every way, yet not induced to transgress, otherwise he will not be just.

Cita 24:16 Augustine of Hippo, Expositions on the Psalms (Psalm CXLV)
But "God strengtheneth." For "the just falleth seven times, and riseth again; but the wicked shall be weakened in evils." When evils befall the wicked, they are weakened thereby; when evils befall the righteous, "the Lord strengtheneth all that are falling."..."And lifteth up all those that have been cast down:" all, that is, who belong to him; for "God resisteth …
