WEB World English Bible (clásica, con deuterocanónicos)

1 [My] son, if thou become surety for thy friend, thou shalt deliver thine hand to an enemy.

1 HIJO mío, si salieres fiador por tu amigo, si tocaste tu mano por el extraño,

1 My son, if you have become collateral for your neighbor, if you have struck your hands in pledge for a stranger,

2 For a man's own lips become a strong snare to him, and he is caught with the lips of his own mouth.

2 Enlazado eres con las palabras de tu boca, y preso con las razones de tu boca.

2 you are trapped by the words of your mouth; you are ensnared with the words of your mouth.

3 [My] son, do what I command thee, and deliver thyself; for on thy friend's account thou art come into the power of evil [men]: faint not, but stir up even thy friend for whom thou art become surety.

3 Haz esto ahora, hijo mío, y líbrate, ya que has caído en la mano de tu prójimo: ve, humíllate, y asegúrate de tu amigo.

3 Do this now, my son, and deliver yourself, since you have come into the hand of your neighbor. Go, humble yourself. Press your plea with your neighbor.

4 Give not sleep to thine eyes, nor slumber with thine eyelids;

4 No des sueño á tus ojos, ni á tus párpados adormecimiento.

4 Give no sleep to your eyes, nor slumber to your eyelids.

5 that thou mayest deliver thyself as a doe out of the toils, and as a bird out of a snare.

5 Escápate como el corzo de la mano [del cazador], y como el ave de la mano del parancero.

5 Free yourself, like a gazelle from the hand of the hunter, like a bird from the snare of the fowler.

6 Go to the ant, O sluggard; and see, and emulate his ways, and become wiser than he.

6 Ve á la hormiga, oh perezoso, mira sus caminos, y sé sabio;

6 Go to the ant, you sluggard. Consider her ways, and be wise;

7 For whereas he has no husbandry, nor any one to compel him, and is under no master,

7 La cual no teniendo capitán, ni gobernador, ni señor,

7 which having no chief, overseer, or ruler,

8 he prepares food for himself in the summer, and lays by abundant store in harvest.

8 Prepara en el verano su comida y allega en el tiempo de la siega su mantenimiento.

8 provides her bread in the summer, and gathers her food in the harvest.

8a Or go to the bee, and learn how diligent she is, and how earnestly she is engaged in her work;

8b whose labours kings and private men use for health, and she is desired and respected by all:

8c though weak in body, she is advanced by honouring wisdom.

9 How long wilt thou lie, O sluggard? and when wilt thou awake out of sleep?

9 Perezoso, ¿hasta cuándo has de dormir? ¿cuándo te levantarás de tu sueño?

9 How long will you sleep, sluggard? When will you arise out of your sleep?

10 Thou sleepest a little, and thou restest a little, and thou slumberest a short [time], and thou foldest thine arms over thy breast a little.

10 Un poco de sueño, un poco de dormitar, y cruzar por un poco las manos para reposo:

10 A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep—

11 Then poverty comes upon thee as an evil traveller, and want as a swift courier:

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

11 so your poverty will come as a robber, and your scarcity as an armed man.

11a but if thou be diligent, thine harvest shall arrive as a fountain, and poverty shall flee away as a bad courier.

12 A foolish man and a transgressor goes in ways that are not good.

12 El hombre malo, el hombre depravado, anda en perversidad de boca;

12 A worthless person, a man of iniquity, is he who walks with a perverse mouth,

13 And the same winks with the eye, and makes a sign with his foot, and teaches with the beckonings of his fingers.

13 Guiña de sus ojos, habla con sus pies, indica con sus dedos;

13 who winks with his eyes, who signals with his feet, who motions with his fingers,

14 [His] perverse heart devises evils: at all times such a one causes troubles to a city.

14 Perversidades hay en su corazón, anda pensando mal en todo tiempo; enciende rencillas.

14 in whose heart is perverseness, who devises evil continually, who always sows discord.

15 Therefore his destruction shall come suddenly; overthrow and irretrievable ruin.

15 Por tanto su calamidad vendrá de repente; súbitamente será quebrantado, y no [habrá] remedio.

15 Therefore his calamity will come suddenly. He will be broken suddenly, and that without remedy.

16 For he rejoices in all things which God hates, and he is ruined by reason of impurity of soul.

16 Seis cosas aborrece Jehová, y aun siete abomina su alma:

16 There are six things which Yahweh hates; yes, seven which are an abomination to him:

17 The eye of the haughty, a tongue unjust, hands shedding the blood of the just;

17 Los ojos altivos, la lengua mentirosa, las manos derramadoras de sangre inocente,

17 arrogant eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood,

18 and a heart devising evil thoughts, and feet hastening to do evil,—[are hateful to God].

18 El corazón que maquina pensamientos inicuos, los pies presurosos para correr al mal,

18 a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are swift in running to mischief,

19 An unjust witness kindles falsehoods, and brings on quarrels between brethren.

19 El testigo falso que habla mentiras, y el que enciende rencillas entre los hermanos.

19 a false witness who utters lies, and he who sows discord among brothers.

20 [My] son, keep the laws of thy father, and reject not the ordinances of thy mother:

20 Guarda, hijo mío, el mandamiento de tu padre, y no dejes la enseñanza de tu madre:

20 My son, keep your father’s commandment, and don’t forsake your mother’s teaching.

21 but bind them upon thy soul continually, and hang them as a chain about thy neck.

21 Atalos siempre en tu corazón, enlázalos á tu cuello.

21 Bind them continually on your heart. Tie them around your neck.

22 Whensoever thou walkest, lead this along and let it be with thee; and when thou sleepest let it keep thee; that it may talk with thee when thou wakest.

22 Te guiarán cuando anduvieres; cuando durmieres te guardarán; hablarán contigo cuando despertares.

22 When you walk, it will lead you. When you sleep, it will watch over you. When you awake, it will talk with you.

23 For the commandment of the law is a lamp and a light; a way of life; reproof also and correction:

23 Porque el mandamiento es antorcha, y la enseñanza luz; y camino de vida las reprensiones de la enseñanza:

23 For the commandment is a lamp, and the law is light. Reproofs of instruction are the way of life,

24 to keep thee continually from a married woman, and from the calumny of a strange tongue.

24 Para que te guarden de la mala mujer, de la blandura de la lengua de la extraña.

24 to keep you from the immoral woman, from the flattery of the wayward wife’s tongue.

25 Let not the desire of beauty overcome thee, neither be thou caught by thine eyes, neither be captivated with her eyelids.

25 No codicies su hermosura en tu corazón, ni ella te prenda con sus ojos:

25 Don’t lust after her beauty in your heart, neither let her captivate you with her eyelids.

26 For the value of a harlot is as much as of one loaf; and a woman hunts for the precious souls of men.

26 Porque á causa de la mujer ramera [es reducido el hombre] á un bocado de pan; y la mujer caza la preciosa alma del varón.

26 For a prostitute reduces you to a piece of bread. The adulteress hunts for your precious life.

27 Shall any one bind fire in his bosom, and not burn his garments?

27 ¿Tomará el hombre fuego en su seno, sin que sus vestidos se quemen?

27 Can a man scoop fire into his lap, and his clothes not be burned?

28 or will any one walk on coals of fire, and not burn his feet?

28 ¿Andará el hombre sobre las brasas, sin que sus pies se abrasen?

28 Or can one walk on hot coals, and his feet not be scorched?

29 So is he that goes in to a married woman; he shall not be held guiltless, neither any one that touches her.

29 Así el que entrare á la mujer de su prójimo; no será sin culpa cualquiera que la tocare.

29 So is he who goes in to his neighbor’s wife. Whoever touches her will not be unpunished.

30 It is not to be wondered at if one should be taken stealing, for he steals that when hungry he may satisfy his soul:

30 No tienen en poco al ladrón, cuando hurtare para saciar su alma teniendo hambre:

30 Men don’t despise a thief if he steals to satisfy himself when he is hungry,

31 but if he should be taken, he shall repay sevenfold, and shall deliver himself by giving all his goods.

31 Empero tomado, paga las setenas, da toda la sustancia de su casa.

31 but if he is found, he shall restore seven times. He shall give all the wealth of his house.

32 But the adulterer through want of sense procures destruction to his soul.

32 Mas el que comete adulterio con la mujer, es falto de entendimiento: corrompe su alma el que tal hace.

32 He who commits adultery with a woman is void of understanding. He who does it destroys his own soul.

33 He endures both pain and disgrace, and his reproach shall never be wiped off.

33 Plaga y vergüenza hallará; y su afrenta nunca será raída.

33 He will get wounds and dishonor. His reproach will not be wiped away.

34 For the soul of her husband is full of jealousy: he will not spare in the day of vengeance.

34 Porque los celos son el furor del hombre, y no perdonará en el día de la venganza.

34 For jealousy arouses the fury of the husband. He won’t spare in the day of vengeance.

35 He will not forego [his] enmity for any ransom: neither will he be reconciled for many gifts.

35 No tendrá respeto á ninguna redención; ni querrá [perdonar], aunque multipliques los dones.

35 He won’t regard any ransom, neither will he rest content, though you give many gifts.
