1 Hijo, si te llegas a servir al Señor, prepara tu alma para la prueba. | 1 Son, when you apply yourself to the service of God, stand in justice and in fear, and prepare your soul for temptation. |
2 Endereza tu corazón, manténte firme, y no te aceleres en la hora de la adversidad. | 2 Humble your heart, and persevere. Incline your ear, and accept words of understanding. And you should not hurry away in the time of distress. |
3 Adhiérete a él, no te separes, para que seas exaltado en tus postrimerías. | 3 Endure steadfastly for God. Join yourself to God, and persevere, so that your life may increase in the very end. |
4 Todo lo que te sobrevenga, acéptalo, y en los reveses de tu humillación sé paciente. | 4 Accept everything that will happened to you, and persevere in your sorrow, and have patience in your humiliation. |
5 Porque en el fuego se purifica el oro, y los aceptos a Dios en el honor de la humillación. | 5 For gold and silver are tested in fire, yet truly, acceptable men are tested in the furnace of humiliation. |
6 Confíate a él, y él, a su vez, te cuidará, endereza tus caminos y espera en él. | 6 Believe God, and he will restore you to health. And straighten your way, and hope in him. Observe his fear, and grow old in it. |
7 Los que teméis al Señor, aguardad su misericordia, y no os desviéis, para no caer. | 7 You who fear the Lord, wait for his mercy. And do not turn away from him, lest you fall. |
8 Los que teméis al Señor, confiaos a él, y no os faltará la recompensa. | 8 You who fear the Lord, believe in him. And your reward will not be taken away. |
9 Los que teméis al Señor, esperad bienes, contento eterno y misericordia. | 9 You who fear the Lord, hope in him. And mercy will approach you, to your delight. |
10 Mirad a las generaciones de antaño y ved: ¿Quién se confió al Señor y quedó confundido? ¿Quién perseveró en su temor y quedó abandonado? ¿Quién le invocó y fue desatendido? | 10 You who fear the Lord, love him. And your hearts will be illuminated. |
11 Que el Señor es compasivo y misericordioso, perdona los pecados y salva en la hora de la tribulación. | 11 My sons, consider the nations of men, and know that not one of them hoped in the Lord and was confounded. |
12 ¡Ay de los corazones flacos y las manos caídas, del pecador que va por senda doble! | 12 For who has remained in his commandment and been abandoned? Or who has called upon him, and yet he despised him? |
13 ¡Ay del corazón caído, que no tiene confianza! por eso no será protegido. | 13 For God is upright and merciful, and he will forgive sins in the day of tribulation. And he is the Protector to all those who seek him in truth. |
14 ¡Ay de vosotros que perdisteis el aguante! ¿Qué vais a hacer cuando el Señor os visite? | 14 Woe to the duplicitous heart, and to the wicked lips, and to the hands that do evil, and to the sinner who walks the earth by two ways! |
15 Los que temen al Señor no desobedecen sus palabras, los que le aman guardan sus caminos. | 15 Woe to the dissolute in heart, who do not trust God! For, as a result, they will not be protected by him. |
16 Los que temen al Señor buscan su agrado, los que le aman quedan llenos de su Ley. | 16 Woe to those who have lost endurance, and who have abandoned upright ways, and who have turned aside to depraved ways! |
17 Los que temen al Señor tienen corazón dispuesto, y en su presencia se humillan. | 17 And what will they do when the Lord begins to examine them? |
18 Caeremos en manos del Señor y no en manos de los hombres, pues como es su grandeza, tal su misericordia. | 18 Those who fear the Lord will not be unbelieving toward his Word. And those who love him will keep to his way. |
19 Those who fear the Lord will seek the things that are well-pleasing to him. And those who love him will be filled with his law. | |
20 Those who fear the Lord will prepare their hearts, and they will sanctify their souls in his sight. | |
21 Those who fear the Lord keep his commandments, and they will have patience even until his examination, | |
22 saying: “If we do not do penance, then we will fall into the hands of the Lord, and not into the hands of men.” | |
23 For according to his greatness, so also is his mercy with him. |
