1Y RESPONDIÓ Bildad Suhita, y dijo:
1Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said:
2¿Cuándo pondréis fin á las palabras? Entended, y después hablemos.
2How long will ye lay snares for words? Consider, and afterwards we will speak.
3¿Por qué somos tenidos por bestias, y en vuestros ojos somos viles?
3Wherefore are we counted as beasts, and reputed dull in your sight?
4Oh tú, que despedazas tu alma con tu furor, ¿será dejada la tierra por tu causa, y serán traspasadas de su lugar las peñas?
4Thou that tearest thyself in thine anger, shall the earth be forsaken for thee? Or shall the rock be removed out of its place?
5Ciertamente la luz de los impíos será apagada, y no resplandecerá la centella de su fuego.
5Yea, the light of the wicked shall be put out, and the spark of his fire shall not shine.
6La luz se oscurecerá en su tienda, y apagaráse sobre él su lámpara.
6The light shall be dark in his tent, and his lamp over him shall be put out.
7Los pasos de su pujanza serán acortados, y precipitarálo su mismo consejo.
7The steps of his strength shall be straitened, and his own counsel shall cast him down.
8Porque red será echada en sus pies, y sobre red andará.
8For he is cast into a net by his own feet, and he walketh upon the toils.
9Lazo prenderá su calcañar: afirmaráse la trampa contra él.
9A gin shall take him by the heel, and a snare shall lay hold on him.
10Su cuerda está escondida en la tierra, y su torzuelo sobre la senda.
10A noose is hid for him in the ground, and a trap for him in the way.
11De todas partes lo asombrarán temores, y haránle huir desconcertado.
11Terrors shall overwhelm him on every side, and shall entrap him at his feet.
12Su fuerza será hambrienta, y á su lado estará aparejado quebrantamiento.
12His trouble shall be ravenous, and calamity shall be ready for his fall.
13El primogénito de la muerte comerá los ramos de su piel, y devorará sus miembros.
13It shall devour the members of his body, yea, the first-born of death shall devour his members.
14Su confianza será arrancada de su tienda, y harále esto llevar al rey de los espantos.
14That wherein he trusteth shall be plucked out of his tent; and he shall be brought to the king of terrors.
15En su tienda morará como si no fuese suya: piedra azufre será esparcida sobre su morada.
15There shall dwell in his tent that which is none of his; brimstone shall be scattered upon his habitation.
16Abajo se secarán sus raíces, y arriba serán cortadas sus ramas.
16His roots shall dry up beneath, and above shall his branch wither.
17Su memoria perecerá de la tierra, y no tendrá nombre por las calles.
17His remembrance shall perish from the earth, and he shall have no name abroad.
18De la luz será lanzado á las tinieblas, y echado fuera del mundo.
18He shall be driven from light into darkness, and chased out of the world.
19No tendrá hijo ni nieto en su pueblo, ni quien le suceda en sus moradas.
19He shall have neither son nor son's son among his people, nor any remaining in his dwellings.
20Sobre su día se espantarán los por venir, como ocupó el pavor á los que fueron antes.
20They that come after shall be astonished at his day, as they that went before are affrighted.
21Ciertamente tales son las moradas del impío, y este será el lugar del que no conoció á Dios.
21Surely such are the dwellings of the wicked, and this is the place of him that knoweth not God.
