WEB World English Bible (clásica, con deuterocanónicos)

1 I made a covenant with mine eyes, and I will not think upon a virgin.

1 HICE pacto con mis ojos: ¿cómo pues había yo de pensar en virgen?

1 “I made a covenant with my eyes; how then should I look lustfully at a young woman?

2 Now what portion has God given from above? and is there an inheritance [given] of the Mighty One from the highest?

2 Porque ¿qué galardón [me daría] de arriba Dios, y qué heredad el Omnipotente de las alturas?

2 For what is the portion from God above, and the heritage from the Almighty on high?

3 Alas! destruction to the unrighteous, and rejection to them that do iniquity.

3 ¿No hay quebrantamiento para el impío, y extrañamiento para los que obran iniquidad?

3 Is it not calamity to the unrighteous, and disaster to the workers of iniquity?

4 Will he not see my way, and number all my steps?

4 ¿No ve él mis caminos, y cuenta todos mis pasos?

4 Doesn’t he see my ways, and count all my steps?

5 But if I had gone with scorners, and if too my foot has hasted to deceit:

5 Si anduve con mentira, y si mi pie se apresuró á engaño,

5 “If I have walked with falsehood, and my foot has hurried to deceit

6 (for I am weighed in a just balance, and the Lord knows my innocence:)

6 Péseme Dios en balanzas de justicia, y conocerá mi integridad.

6 (let me be weighed in an even balance, that God may know my integrity);

7 if my foot has turned aside out of the way, or if mine heart has followed mine eye, and if too I have touched gifts with my hands;

7 Si mis pasos se apartaron del camino, y si mi corazón se fué tras mis ojos, y si algo se apegó á mis manos,

7 if my step has turned out of the way, if my heart walked after my eyes, if any defilement has stuck to my hands,

8 then let me sow, and let others eat; and let me be uprooted on the earth.

8 Siembre yo, y otro coma, y mis verduras sean arrancadas.

8 then let me sow, and let another eat. Yes, let the produce of my field be rooted out.

9 If my heart has gone forth after another man's wife, and if I laid wait at her doors;

9 Si fué mi corazón engañado acerca de mujer, y si estuve acechando á la puerta de mi prójimo:

9 “If my heart has been enticed to a woman, and I have laid wait at my neighbor’s door,

10 then let my wife also please another, and let my children be brought low.

10 Muela para otro mi mujer, y sobre ella otros se encorven.

10 then let my wife grind for another, and let others sleep with her.

11 For the rage of anger is not to be controlled, [in the case] of defiling [another] man's wife.

11 Porque es maldad é iniquidad, que han de castigar los jueces.

11 For that would be a heinous crime. Yes, it would be an iniquity to be punished by the judges,

12 For it is a fire burning on every side, and whomsoever it attacks, it utterly destroys.

12 Porque es fuego que devoraría hasta el sepulcro, y desarraigaría toda mi hacienda.

12 for it is a fire that consumes to destruction, and would root out all my increase.

13 And if too I despised the judgment of my servant or [my] handmaid, when they pleaded with me;

13 Si hubiera tenido en poco el derecho de mi siervo y de mi sierva, cuando ellos pleitearan conmigo,

13 “If I have despised the cause of my male servant or of my female servant, when they contended with me,

14 what then shall I do if the Lord should try me? and if also he should at all visit me, can I make an answer?

14 ¿Qué haría yo cuando Dios se levantase? y cuando él visitara, ¿qué le respondería yo?

14 what then will I do when God rises up? When he visits, what will I answer him?

15 Were not they too formed as I also was formed in the womb? yea, we were formed in the same womb.

15 El que en el vientre me hizo á mí, ¿no lo hizo á él? ¿y no nos dispuso uno mismo en la matriz?

15 Didn’t he who made me in the womb make him? Didn’t one fashion us in the womb?

16 But the helpless missed not whatever need they had, and I did not cause the eye of the widow to fail.

16 Si estorbé el contento de los pobres, é hice desfallecer los ojos de la viuda;

16 “If I have withheld the poor from their desire, or have caused the eyes of the widow to fail,

17 And if too I ate my morsel alone, and did not impart [of it] to the orphan;

17 Y si comí mi bocado solo, y no comió de él el huérfano;

17 or have eaten my morsel alone, and the fatherless has not eaten of it

18 (for I nourished [them] as a father from my youth, and guided [them] from my mother's womb.)

18 (Porque desde mi mocedad creció conmigo como con padre, y desde el vientre de mi madre fuí guía de la viuda;)

18 (no, from my youth he grew up with me as with a father, I have guided her from my mother’s womb);

19 And if too I overlooked the naked as he was perishing, and did not clothe him;

19 Si he visto que pereciera alguno sin vestido, y al menesteroso sin cobertura;

19 if I have seen any perish for want of clothing, or that the needy had no covering;

20 and if the poor did not bless me, and their shoulders were [not] warmed with the fleece of my lambs;

20 Si no me bendijeron sus lomos, y del vellón de mis ovejas se calentaron;

20 if his heart hasn’t blessed me, if he hasn’t been warmed with my sheep’s fleece;

21 if I lifted my hand against an orphan, trusting that my strength was far superior [to his]:

21 Si alcé contra el huérfano mi mano, aunque viese que me ayudarían en la puerta;

21 if I have lifted up my hand against the fatherless, because I saw my help in the gate;

22 let then my shoulder start from the blade-bone, and my arm be crushed off from the elbow.

22 Mi espalda se caiga de mi hombro, y mi brazo sea quebrado de mi canilla.

22 then let my shoulder fall from the shoulder blade, and my arm be broken from the bone.

23 For the fear of the Lord constrained me, and I cannot bear up by reason of his burden.

23 Porque temí el castigo de Dios, contra cuya alteza yo no tendría poder.

23 For calamity from God is a terror to me. Because of his majesty, I can do nothing.

24 If I made gold my treasure, and if too I trusted the precious stone;

24 Si puse en oro mi esperanza, y dije al oro: Mi confianza [eres] tú;

24 “If I have made gold my hope, and have said to the fine gold, ‘You are my confidence;’

25 and if too I rejoiced when my wealth was abundant, and if too I laid my hand on innumerable [treasures]:

25 Si me alegré de que mi hacienda se multiplicase, y de que mi mano hallase mucho;

25 If I have rejoiced because my wealth was great, and because my hand had gotten much;

26 (do we not see the shining sun eclipsed, and the moon waning? for they have not [power to continue]:)

26 Si he mirado al sol cuando resplandecía, y á la luna cuando iba hermosa,

26 if I have seen the sun when it shined, or the moon moving in splendor,

27 and if my heart was secretly deceived, and if I have laid my hand upon my mouth and kissed it:

27 Y mi corazón se engañó en secreto, y mi boca besó mi mano:

27 and my heart has been secretly enticed, and my hand threw a kiss from my mouth;

28 let this also then be reckoned to me as the greatest iniquity: for I [should] have lied against the Lord Most High.

28 Esto también fuera maldad juzgada; porque habría negado al Dios soberano.

28 this also would be an iniquity to be punished by the judges, for I would have denied the God who is above.

29 And if too I was glad at the fall of mine enemies, and mine heart said, Aha!

29 Si me alegré en el quebrantamiento del que me aborrecía, y me regocijé cuando le halló el mal;

29 “If I have rejoiced at the destruction of him who hated me, or lifted up myself when evil found him

30 let then mine ear hear my curse, and let me be a by-word among my people in my affliction.

30 (Que ni aun entregué al pecado mi paladar, pidiendo maldición para su alma;)

30 (I have certainly not allowed my mouth to sin by asking his life with a curse);

31 And if too my handmaids have often said, Oh that we might be satisfied with his flesh; (whereas I was very kind:

31 Cuando mis domésticos decían: ¡Quién nos diese de su carne! nunca nos hartaríamos.

31 if the men of my tent have not said, ‘Who can find one who has not been filled with his meat?’

32 for the stranger did not lodge without, and my door was opened to every one that came:)

32 El extranjero no tenía fuera la noche; mis puertas abría al caminante.

32 (the foreigner has not camped in the street, but I have opened my doors to the traveler);

33 or if too having sinned unintentionally, I hid my sin;

33 Si encubrí, como los hombres mis prevaricaciones, escondiendo en mi seno mi iniquidad;

33 if like Adam I have covered my transgressions, by hiding my iniquity in my heart,

34 (for I did not stand in awe of a great multitude, so as not to declare boldly before them:) and if too I permitted a poor man to go out of my door with an empty bosom:

34 Porque quebrantaba á la gran multitud, y el menosprecio de las familias me atemorizó, y callé, y no salí de mi puerta:

34 because I feared the great multitude, and the contempt of families terrified me, so that I kept silence, and didn’t go out of the door—

35 (Oh that I had a hearer,) and if I had not feared the hand of the Lord; and [as to] the written charge which I had against any one,

35 ¡Quién me diera quien me oyese! He aquí mi impresión [es] que el Omnipotente testificaría por mí, aunque mi adversario me hiciera el proceso.

35 oh that I had one to hear me! Behold, here is my signature! Let the Almighty answer me! Let the accuser write my indictment!

36 I would place [it] as a chaplet on my shoulders, and read it.

36 Ciertamente yo lo llevaría sobre mi hombro, y me lo ataría en lugar de corona.

36 Surely I would carry it on my shoulder, and I would bind it to me as a crown.

37 And if I did not read it and return it, having taken nothing from the debtor:

37 Yo le contaría el número de mis pasos, y como príncipe me llegaría á él.

37 I would declare to him the number of my steps. I would go near to him like a prince.

38 If at any time the land groaned against me, and if its furrows mourned together;

38 Si mi tierra clama contra mí, y lloran todos sus surcos;

38 If my land cries out against me, and its furrows weep together;

39 and if I ate its strength alone without price, and if too I grieved the heart of the owner of the soil, by taking [aught] from [him]:

39 Si comí su sustancia sin dinero, ó afligí el alma de sus dueños;

39 if I have eaten its fruits without money, or have caused its owners to lose their life,

40 then let the nettle come up to me instead of wheat, and a bramble instead of barley. And Job ceased speaking.

40 En lugar de trigo me nazcan abrojos, y espinas en lugar de cebada. Acábanse las palabras de Job.

40 let briers grow instead of wheat, and stinkweed instead of barley.” The words of Job are ended.

Cita 31:1 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew (Homily XXXIII)
And if thou wouldest also hear of his strivings after continence, hearken to him when he saith, "I made a covenant with mine eyes, that I should not think upon a maid." For this cause his wife did not break his spirit, for he loved her even before this, not however immoderately, but as is due to a wife.
