1Then Bildad the Shuhite answered,
1Y RESPONDIÓ Bildad Suhita, y dijo:
2“How long will you hunt for words? Consider, and afterwards we will speak.
2¿Cuándo pondréis fin á las palabras? Entended, y después hablemos.
3Why are we counted as animals, which have become unclean in your sight?
3¿Por qué somos tenidos por bestias, y en vuestros ojos somos viles?
4You who tear yourself in your anger, will the earth be forsaken for you? Or will the rock be removed out of its 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?
5“Yes, the light of the wicked will be put out. The spark of his fire won’t shine.
5Ciertamente la luz de los impíos será apagada, y no resplandecerá la centella de su fuego.
6The light will be dark in his tent. His lamp above him will be put out.
6La luz se oscurecerá en su tienda, y apagaráse sobre él su lámpara.
7The steps of his strength will be shortened. His own counsel will cast him down.
7Los pasos de su pujanza serán acortados, y precipitarálo su mismo consejo.
8For he is cast into a net by his own feet, and he wanders into its mesh.
8Porque red será echada en sus pies, y sobre red andará.
9A snare will take him by the heel. A trap will catch him.
9Lazo prenderá su calcañar: afirmaráse la trampa contra él.
10A noose is hidden for him in the ground, a trap for him on the path.
10Su cuerda está escondida en la tierra, y su torzuelo sobre la senda.
11Terrors will make him afraid on every side, and will chase him at his heels.
11De todas partes lo asombrarán temores, y haránle huir desconcertado.
12His strength will be famished. Calamity will be ready at his side.
12Su fuerza será hambrienta, y á su lado estará aparejado quebrantamiento.
13The members of his body will be devoured. The firstborn of death will devour his members.
13El primogénito de la muerte comerá los ramos de su piel, y devorará sus miembros.
14He will be rooted out of the security of his tent. He will be brought to the king of terrors.
14Su confianza será arrancada de su tienda, y harále esto llevar al rey de los espantos.
15There will dwell in his tent that which is none of his. Sulfur will be scattered on his habitation.
15En su tienda morará como si no fuese suya: piedra azufre será esparcida sobre su morada.
16His roots will be dried up beneath. His branch will be cut off above.
16Abajo se secarán sus raíces, y arriba serán cortadas sus ramas.
17His memory will perish from the earth. He will have no name in the street.
17Su memoria perecerá de la tierra, y no tendrá nombre por las calles.
18He will be driven from light into darkness, and chased out of the world.
18De la luz será lanzado á las tinieblas, y echado fuera del mundo.
19He will have neither son nor grandson among his people, nor any remaining where he lived.
19No tendrá hijo ni nieto en su pueblo, ni quien le suceda en sus moradas.
20Those who come after will be astonished at his day, as those who went before were frightened.
20Sobre su día se espantarán los por venir, como ocupó el pavor á los que fueron antes.
21Surely such are the dwellings of the unrighteous. This is the place of him who doesn’t know God.”
21Ciertamente tales son las moradas del impío, y este será el lugar del que no conoció á Dios.
