Job 9 Unlocked Literal Bible
Audio: World English Bible (WEB), en inglés, leído por Winfred W. Henson · Sobre las grabaciones
1 Then Job answered and said,
1 Y RESPONDIÓ Job, y dijo:
2 “I truly know that this is so. But how can a person be in the right with God?
2 Ciertamente yo conozco que es así: ¿y cómo se justificará el hombre con Dios?
3 If he wants to argue with God, he cannot answer him once in a thousand times.
3 Si quisiere contender con él, no le podrá responder á una [cosa] de mil.
4 God is wise in heart and mighty in strength; who has ever hardened himself against him and succeeded?—
4 El es sabio de corazón, y poderoso en fortaleza: ¿quién se endureció contra él, y quedó en paz?
5 he who removes the mountains without warning anyone when he overturns them in his anger—
5 Que arranca los montes con su furor, y no conocen quién los trastornó:
6 he who shakes the earth out of its place and sets its supports trembling.
6 Que remueve la tierra de su lugar, y hace temblar sus columnas:
7 It is the same God who tells the sun not to rise, and it does not, and who covers up the stars,
7 Que manda al sol, y no sale; y sella las estrellas:
8 who by himself stretches out the heavens and tramples down the waves of the sea,
8 El que extiende solo los cielos, y anda sobre las alturas de la mar:
9 who makes the Bear, Orion, the Pleiades, and the constellations of the south.
9 El que hizo el Arcturo, y el Orión, y las Pléyadas, y los lugares secretos del mediodía:
10 He does great and unsearchable things, and wonderful things that cannot be counted.
10 El que hace cosas grandes é incomprensibles, y maravillosas, sin número.
11 See, he goes by me, and I do not see him; he passes on also, but I do not perceive him.
11 He aquí que él pasará delante de mí, y yo no lo veré; y pasará, y no lo entenderé.
12 If he takes something away, who can stop him? Who can say to him, 'What are you doing?'
12 He aquí, arrebatará; ¿quién le hará restituir? ¿Quién le dirá, Qué haces?
13 God will not withdraw his anger; the helpers of Rahab bow beneath him.
13 Dios no tornará atrás su ira, y debajo de él se encorvan los que ayudan á los soberbios.
14 How much less could I answer him, could I choose words to reason with him?
14 ¿Cuánto menos le responderé yo, y hablaré con él palabras estudiadas?
15 Even if I were righteous, I could not answer him; I could only plead for mercy with my judge.
15 Que aunque fuese yo justo, no responderé; antes habré de rogar á mi juez.
16 Even if I called and he answered me, I would not believe that he was listening to my voice.
16 Que si yo le invocase, y él me respondiese, aun no creeré que haya escuchado mi voz.
17 For he breaks me with a tempest and multiplies my wounds without cause.
17 Porque me ha quebrado con tempestad, y ha aumentado mis heridas sin causa.
18 He does not allow me to regain my breath; but he fills me with bitterness.
18 No me ha concedido que tome mi aliento; mas hame hartado de amarguras.
19 If it is a matter of strength, behold, he is mighty! If it is a matter of justice, who can summon him?
19 Si [habláremos] de [su] potencia, fuerte por cierto es; si de juicio, ¿quién me emplazará?
20 Though I am in the right, my own mouth would condemn me; and though I am blameless, my words would prove me to be guilty.
20 Si yo me justificare, me condenará mi boca; si [me dijere] perfecto, esto me hará inicuo.
21 I am blameless, but I do not care any more about myself; I despise my own life.
21 [Bien que] yo [fuese] íntegro, no conozco mi alma: reprocharé mi vida.
22 It makes no difference, which is why I say that he destroys blameless people and wicked people together.
22 Una cosa resta que yo diga: Al perfecto y al impío él los consume.
23 When a whip suddenly kills, he mocks the despair of the innocent.
23 Si azote mata de presto, ríese de la prueba de los inocentes.
24 The earth is given into the hand of wicked people; God covers the faces of its judges. If it is not he who does it, then who is it?
24 La tierra es entregada en manos de los impíos, y él cubre el rostro de sus jueces. Si no [es él], ¿quién [es]? ¿dónde está?
25 My days are swifter than a running messenger; my days flee away; they see no good anywhere.
25 Mis días han sido más ligeros que un correo; huyeron, y no vieron el bien.
26 They are as fast as papyrus reed boats, and as fast as the eagle that swoops down on its victim.
26 Pasaron cual navíos veloces: como el águila que se arroja á la comida.
27 If I said that I would forget about my complaints, that I would take off my sad face and be happy,
27 Si digo: Olvidaré mi queja, dejaré mi aburrimiento, y esforzaréme:
28 I would be afraid of all my sorrows because I know that you will not consider me innocent.
28 Contúrbanme todos mis trabajos; sé que no me darás por libre.
29 I will be condemned; why, then, should I try in vain?
29 Yo soy impío, ¿para qué trabajaré en vano?
30 If I washed myself with snow water and made my hands ever so clean,
30 Aunque me lave con aguas de nieve, y limpie mis manos con la misma limpieza,
31 God would plunge me in a ditch, and my own clothes would be disgusted with me.
31 Aun me hundirás en el hoyo, y mis propios vestidos me abominarán.
32 For God is not a man, as I am, that I could answer him, that we could come together in court.
32 Porque no es hombre como yo, para que yo le responda, y vengamos juntamente á juicio.
33 There is no judge between us who might lay his hand upon us both.
33 No hay entre nosotros árbitro que ponga su mano sobre nosotros ambos.
34 There is no other judge who could take God's rod off me, who could keep his terror from frightening me.
34 Quite de sobre mí su vara, y su terror no me espante.
35 Then would I speak up and not fear him. But as things are now, I cannot do that.
35 Entonces hablaré, y no le temeré: porque así no estoy en mí mismo.

Lo que dijeron los Padres
Pasajes de los Padres de la Iglesia que comentan o citan este capítulo, tal como aparecen en la edición de Schaff (traducciones inglesas del siglo XIX, de dominio público). Los textos están en inglés.
Cómo se eligieron
«Comentario» es el comienzo de una homilía o exposición sobre este capítulo (homilías de san Juan Crisóstomo; tratados, sermones y comentarios a los Salmos de san Agustín). «Cita» es una frase en la que las notas de la propia edición identifican la cita de un versículo de este capítulo; solo se conserva si el texto coincide con el versículo. Solo se usan obras de autoría segura. Los Salmos siguen la numeración hebrea (Agustín usa la de los Setenta: su Salmo 50 es aquí el 51).
That which a certain scripture says: "The earth was delivered into the hands of the ungodly." The flesh was given into the power of the Jews; and this that thereby the bag, as it were, might be rent asunder, whence our purchase-price might run out.

And this Job said mystically, Which alone spread out the heaven, and walketh upon the sea as on firm ground; signifying to those who understand that He who when present here walked upon the sea is also He who aforetime made the heavens.

"The earth is given into the hands of the wicked." What is meant by "earth" being "given into the hands of the ungodly"?

"I slept," because "I have power to lay down My life, and I have power to take it again." "I laid Me down and slept, and rose up again." Rage then the Jews; be "the earth given into the hands of the wicked," be the flesh left to the hands of persecutors, let them on wood suspend it, with nails …
