La Biblia Douai-Rheims
1 Escucha, Job, mis palabras; | presta oído a mi discurso:1 Hear therefore, O Job, my speeches, and hearken to all my words.
2 Ya comienzo a abrir la boca, | mi lengua junto al paladar | empieza a formar palabras.2 Behold now I have opened my mouth, let my tongue speak within my jaws.
3 Hablaré con corazón sincero, | con un saber aquilatado en mis labios.3 My words are from my upright heart, and my lips shall speak a pure sentence.
4 El soplo de Dios me formó, | el aliento del Todopoderoso me dio vida.4 The spirit of God made me, and the breath of the Almighty gave me life.
5 Contéstame, si puedes hacerlo; | mantente firme frente a mí.5 If thou canst, answer me, and stand up against my face.
6 Yo soy obra de Dios, como tú; | también modelado con arcilla.6 Behold God hath made me as well as thee, and of the same clay I also was formed.
7 No va a trastornarte mi terror, | ni pienso ensañarme contigo.7 But yet let not my wonder terrify thee, and let not my eloquence be burdensome to thee.
8 Tú declaraste en mi presencia, | (yo mismo oí tus palabras):8 Now thou has said in my hearing, and I have heard the voice of thy words :
9 “Soy puro, sin un delito; | soy inocente, sin culpa.9 I am clean, and without sin : I am unspotted, and there is no iniquity in me.
10 Es él quien busca pretextos, | ¡me tiene por enemigo!10 Because he hath found complaints against me, therefore he hath counted me for his enemy.
11 Mete mis pies en el cepo, | vigila todos mis pasos”.11 He hath put my feet in the stocks, he hath observed all my paths.
12 Pues te digo que no tienes razón: | Si Dios es más grande que el hombre,12 Now this is the thing in which thou art not justified : I will answer thee, that God is greater than man.
13 ¿cómo te atreves a acusarlo | de no atender a tus razones?13 Dost thou strive against him, because he hath not answered thee to all words?
14 Dios habla de un modo u otro, | aunque no nos demos cuenta:14 God speaketh once, and repeateth not the selfsame thing the second time.
15 en sueños o visiones nocturnas, | cuando cae el sopor sobre el hombre, | cuando está dormitando en su cama.15 By a dream in a vision by night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, and they are sleeping in their beds :
16 Abre entonces el oído del hombre | e inculca en él sus advertencias:16 Then he openeth the ears of men, and teaching instructeth them in what they are to learn.
17 para impedir que cometa una acción | o protegerlo del orgullo del hombre;17 That he may withdraw a man from the things he is doing, and may deliver him from pride.
18 para impedirle que caiga en la fosa, | que su vida traspase el canal.18 Rescuing his soul from corruption : and his life from passing to the sword.
19 Lo corrige en el lecho del dolor, | con la agonía incesante de sus miembros,19 He rebuketh also by sorrow in the bed, and he maketh all his bones to wither.
20 hasta que acaba aborreciendo la comida | y le repugna su manjar favorito;20 Bread becometh abominable to him in his life, and to his soul the meat which before he desired.
21 su carne se consume, desaparece; | sus huesos, que estaban ocultos, aparecen;21 His flesh shall be consumed away, and his bones that were covered shall be made bare.
22 su existencia se acerca a la fosa, | su vida al lugar de los muertos.22 His soul hath drawn near to corruption, and his life to the destroyers.
23 Pero si tiene un ángel junto a él, | un abogado entre mil, | capaz de responder de su honradez,23 If there shall be an angel speaking for him, one among thousands, to declare man's uprightness,
24 este pedirá piedad en su favor: | “Líbralo de bajar a la fosa, | pues he encontrado un rescate”.24 He shall have mercy on him, and shall say : Deliver him, that he may not go down to corruption : I have found wherein I may be merciful to him.
25 Entonces su cuerpo remozará, | volverá a sus días lozanos.25 His flesh is consumed with punishment, let him return to the days of his youth.
26 Dios aceptará sus plegarias, | podrá ver su rostro con júbilo, | pues le ha devuelto su integridad.26 He shall pray to God, and he will be gracious to him : and he shall see his face with joy, and he will render to man his justice.
27 Luego cantará ante los hombres: | “Pequé y pervertí el derecho, | pero no me ha pagado como merecía.27 He shall look upon men, and shall say : I have sinned, and indeed I have offended, and I have not received what I have deserved.
28 Me ha librado de bajar a la fosa, | mi existencia degusta la luz”.28 He hath delivered his soul from going into destruction, that it may live and see the light.
29 Dios suele hacer todo esto | una y mil veces al hombre,29 Behold, all these things God worketh three times within every one.
30 para librar su vida de la fosa | e inundar de luz su vida.30 That he may withdraw their souls from corruption, and enlighten them with the light of the living.
31 Escucha, Job, hazme caso; | calla mientras expongo mis razones.31 Attend, Job, and hearken to me : and hold thy peace, whilst I speak.
32 Si tienes argumentos, refútame; | habla, que quiero darte la razón.32 But if thou hast any thing to say, answer me, speak : for I would have thee to appear just.
33 Pero, si no los tienes, escucha; | calla y te enseñaré sabiduría».33 And if thou have not, hear me : hold thy peace, and I will teach thee wisdom.
