Douai-Rheims La Biblia
1 And Eliphaz the Themanite, answered, and said:1 Elifaz de Temán respondió así:
2 Will a wise man answer as if he were speaking in the wind, and fill his stomach with burning heat?2 «¿Responde un sabio con razones vanas?, | ¿llena su vientre de viento del Este?
3 Thou reprovest him by words, who is not equal to thee, and thou speakest that which is not good for thee.3 ¿Argumenta con discursos inútiles, | con palabras que no valen nada?
4 As much as is in thee, thou hast made void fear, and hast taken away prayers from before God.4 Peor tú, que te muestras irreverente | y dejas de orar ante Dios.
5 For thy iniquity hath taught thy mouth, and thou imitatest the tongue of blasphemers.5 Tu pecado inspira tus palabras, | adoptas el lenguaje de la astucia.
6 Thy own mouth shall condemn thee, and not I: and thy own lips shall answer thee.6 Tu boca te condena, que no yo; | tus labios testifican contra ti.
7 Art thou the first man that was born, or wast thou made before the hills ?7 ¿Eres tú el primogénito de los hombres?, | ¿te engendraron antes que a las colinas?
8 Hast thou heard God's counsel, and shall his wisdom be inferior to thee?8 ¿Has asistido al consejo divino?, | ¿solo tú estás dotado de sabiduría?
9 What knowest thou that we are ignorant of? what dost thou understand that we know not?9 ¿Qué sabes tú que nosotros no sepamos, | qué entiendes tú que nosotros no entendamos?
10 There are with us also aged and ancient men, much elder than thy fathers.10 Entre nosotros hay ancianos venerables, | más repletos de días que tu padre.
11 Is it a great matter that God should comfort thee? but thy wicked words hinder this.11 ¿Te sabe a poco que Dios te consuele | y las amables palabras que se te dirigen?
12 Why doth thy heart elevate thee, and why dost thou stare with thy eyes, as if they were thinking great things ?12 ¿Por qué dejas que tu pasión te domine | y miras con ojos desorbitados,
13 Why doth thy spirit swell against God, to utter such words out of thy mouth ?13 para dirigir tu cólera contra Dios | y lanzar tales palabras por tu boca?
14 What is man that he should be without spot, and he that is born of a woman that he should appear just?14 ¿Qué es el hombre para sentirse puro, | un nacido de mujer para ser inocente?
15 Behold among his saints none is unchangeable, and the heavens are not pure in his sight.15 Si Dios no confía en sus santos | y los cielos no son puros a sus ojos,
16 How much more is man abominable, and unprofitable, who drinketh iniquity like water?16 ¡qué decir de lo odioso y corrompido, | del hombre, que se sacia de maldad!
17 I will shew thee, hear me : and I mill tell thee what I have seen.17 Voy a hablarte, escúchame, | y te diré lo que he visto,
18 Wise men confess and hide not their fathers.18 lo que han contado los sabios | y han transmitido sus padres,
19 To whom alone the earth was given, and no stranger hath passed among them.19 aquellos a quienes dieron el país, | cuando ningún extranjero se infiltraba.
20 The wicked man is proud all his days, and the number of the years of his tyranny is uncertain.20 La vida del malvado es solo sufrimiento, | al tirano le reservan años contados;
21 The sound of dread is always in his ears: and when there is peace, he always suspecteth treason.21 resuena en sus oídos el eco del terror, | cuando vive tranquilo lo asalta el devastador.
22 He believeth not that he may return from darkness to light, looking round about for the sword on every side.22 Que no confíe en escapar de las tinieblas, | pues está destinado para la espada.
23 When he moveth himself to seek bread, he knoweth that the day of darkness is ready at his hand.23 Desechado como pasto de buitres, | sabe que su ruina es segura.
24 Tribulation shall terrify him, and distress shall surround him, as a king that is prepared for the battle.24 Los días oscuros lo aterran, | lo atenazan angustia y ansiedad, | como un rey que se lanza al ataque.
25 For he hath stretched out his hand against God, and hath strengthened himself against the Almighty.25 Pues alzó su mano contra Dios | e intentó desafiar al Todopoderoso, |
26 He hath run against him with his neck raised up, and is armed with a fat neck.26 arremetiendo desafiante contra él | tras la maciza panza de su escudo.
27 Fatness hath covered his face, and the fat hangeth down on his sides.27 Aunque rebosen grasa sus carrillos | y el sebo recubra su lomera,
28 He hath dwelt in desolate cities, and in desert houses that are reduced into heaps.28 habitará en pueblos arruinados, | en casas donde nadie habita, | destinadas a montones de escombros.
29 He shall not be enriched, neither shall his substance continue, neither shall he push his root in the earth.29 No se hará rico ni durarán sus bienes, | no llegarán sus posesiones al sepulcro.
30 He shall not depart out of darkness: the flame shall dry up his branches, and he shall be taken away by the breath of his own month.30 No escapará a la oscuridad, | una llama secará sus renuevos, | el viento barrerá sus brotes.
31 He shall not believe, being vainly deceived by error, that he may be redeemed with any price.31 Que no confíe iluso en su estatura, | pues su rama acabará siendo nada.
32 Before his days be full he shall perish: and his hands shall wither away.32 Antes de tiempo se marchitará, | sus ramas no verdearán.
33 He shall be blasted as a vine when its grapes are in the first flower, and as an olive tree that casteth its flower.33 Será viña que pierde sus agraces, | olivo que se queda sin flores.
34 For the congregation of the hypocrite is barren, and fire shall devour their tabernacles, who love to take bribes.34 No echa frutos la banda de los impíos, | el fuego consume sus viviendas.
35 He hath conceived sorrow, and hath brought forth iniquity, and his womb prepareth deceits.35 Quien concibe maldad, da a luz desgracias, | su vientre va gestando la decepción».
