1ENTONCES respondió Jehová á Job desde la oscuridad, y dijo:
1Moreover the LORD answered Job,
2Cíñete ahora como varón tus lomos; yo te preguntaré, y explícame.
2“Shall he who argues contend with the Almighty? He who argues with God, let him answer it.”
3¿Invalidarás tú también mi juicio? ¿me condenarás á mí, para justificarte á ti?
3Then Job answered the LORD,
4¿Tienes tú brazo como Dios? ¿y tronarás tú con voz como él?
4“Behold, I am of small account. What will I answer you? I lay my hand on my mouth.
5Atavíate ahora de majestad y de alteza: y vístete de honra y de hermosura.
5I have spoken once, and I will not answer; Yes, twice, but I will proceed no further.”
6Esparce furores de tu ira: y mira á todo soberbio, y abátelo.
6Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind:
7Mira á todo soberbio, y humíllalo, y quebranta á los impíos en su asiento.
7“Now brace yourself like a man. I will question you, and you will answer me.
8Encúbrelos á todos en el polvo, venda sus rostros en la oscuridad;
8Will you even annul my judgment? Will you condemn me, that you may be justified?
9Y yo también te confesaré que podrá salvarte tu diestra.
9Or do you have an arm like God? Can you thunder with a voice like him?
10He aquí ahora behemoth, al cual yo hice contigo; hierba come como buey.
10“Now deck yourself with excellency and dignity. Array yourself with honor and majesty.
11He aquí ahora que su fuerza está en sus lomos, y su fortaleza en el ombligo de su vientre.
11Pour out the fury of your anger. Look at everyone who is proud, and bring him low.
12Su cola mueve como un cedro, y los nervios de sus genitales son entretejidos.
12Look at everyone who is proud, and humble him. Crush the wicked in their place.
13Sus huesos son fuertes como bronce, y sus miembros como barras de hierro.
13Hide them in the dust together. Bind their faces in the hidden place.
14El es la cabeza de los caminos de Dios: el que lo hizo, puede hacer que su cuchillo á él se acerque.
14Then I will also admit to you that your own right hand can save you.
15Ciertamente los montes producen hierba para él: y toda bestia del campo retoza allá.
15“See now behemoth, which I made as well as you. He eats grass as an ox.
16Echaráse debajo de las sombras, en lo oculto de las cañas, y de los lugares húmedos.
16Look now, his strength is in his thighs. His force is in the muscles of his belly.
17Los árboles sombríos lo cubren con su sombra; los sauces del arroyo lo cercan.
17He moves his tail like a cedar. The sinews of his thighs are knit together.
18He aquí que él tomará el río sin inmutarse: y confíase que el Jordán pasará por su boca.
18His bones are like tubes of bronze. His limbs are like bars of iron.
19¿Tomarálo alguno por sus ojos en armadijos, y horadará su nariz?
19He is the chief of the ways of God. He who made him gives him his sword.
