1Then Baldad the Suhite answered, and said:
1Y RESPONDIÓ Bildad Suhita, y dijo:
2How long will you throw out words? understand first, and so let us speak.
2¿Cuándo pondréis fin á las palabras? Entended, y después hablemos.
3Why are we reputed as beasts, and counted vile before you?
3¿Por qué somos tenidos por bestias, y en vuestros ojos somos viles?
4Thou that destroyest thy soul in thy fury, shall the earth be forsaken for thee, and shall rocks be removed out of their place?
4Oh tú, que despedazas tu alma con tu furor, ¿será dejada la tierra por tu causa, y serán traspasadas de su lugar las peñas?
5Shall not the light of the wicked be extinguished, and the flame of his fire not shine?
5Ciertamente la luz de los impíos será apagada, y no resplandecerá la centella de su fuego.
6The light shall be dark in his tabernacle, and the lamp that is over him, shall be put out.
6La luz se oscurecerá en su tienda, y apagaráse sobre él su lámpara.
7The step of his strength shall be straitened, and his own counsel shall cast him down headlong.
7Los pasos de su pujanza serán acortados, y precipitarálo su mismo consejo.
8For he hath thrust his feet into a net, and walketh in its meshes.
8Porque red será echada en sus pies, y sobre red andará.
9The sole of his foot shall be held in a snare, and thirst shall burn against him.
9Lazo prenderá su calcañar: afirmaráse la trampa contra él.
10A gin is hidden for him in the earth, and his trap upon the path.
10Su cuerda está escondida en la tierra, y su torzuelo sobre la senda.
11Fears shall terrify him on every side, and shall entangle his feet.
11De todas partes lo asombrarán temores, y haránle huir desconcertado.
12Let his strength be wasted with famine, and let hunger invade his ribs.
12Su fuerza será hambrienta, y á su lado estará aparejado quebrantamiento.
13Let it devour the beauty of his skin, let the firstborn death consume his arms.
13El primogénito de la muerte comerá los ramos de su piel, y devorará sus miembros.
14Let his confidence be rooted out of his tabernacle, and let destruction tread upon him like a king.
14Su confianza será arrancada de su tienda, y harále esto llevar al rey de los espantos.
15Let the companions of him that is not, dwell in his tabernacle, let brimstone be sprinkled in his tent.
15En su tienda morará como si no fuese suya: piedra azufre será esparcida sobre su morada.
16Let his roots be dried up beneath, and his harvest destroyed above.
16Abajo se secarán sus raíces, y arriba serán cortadas sus ramas.
17Let the memory of him perish from the earth and let not his name be renowned in the streets.
17Su memoria perecerá de la tierra, y no tendrá nombre por las calles.
18He shall drive him out of light into darkness, and shall remove him out of the world.
18De la luz será lanzado á las tinieblas, y echado fuera del mundo.
19His seed shall not subsist, nor his offspring among his people, nor any remnants in his country.
19No tendrá hijo ni nieto en su pueblo, ni quien le suceda en sus moradas.
20They that come after him shall be astonished at his day, and horror shall fall upon them that went before.
20Sobre su día se espantarán los por venir, como ocupó el pavor á los que fueron antes.
21These men are the tabernacles of the wicked, and this the place of him that knoweth not God.
21Ciertamente tales son las moradas del impío, y este será el lugar del que no conoció á Dios.
