- 1
“However, Job, please hear my speech, and listen to all my words.
- 2
See now, I have opened my mouth. My tongue has spoken in my mouth.
- 3
My words will utter the uprightness of my heart. That which my lips know they will speak sincerely.
- 4
The Spirit of God has made me, and the breath of the Almighty gives me life.
- 5
If you can, answer me. Set your words in order before me, and stand up.
- 6
Behold, I am toward God even as you are. I am also formed out of the clay.
- 7
Behold, my terror will not make you afraid, neither will my pressure be heavy on you.
- 8
“Surely you have spoken in my hearing, I have heard the voice of your words, saying,
- 9
‘I am clean, without disobedience. I am innocent, neither is there iniquity in me.
- 10
Behold, he finds occasions against me. He counts me for his enemy.
- 11
He puts my feet in the stocks. He marks all my paths.’
- 12
“Behold, I will answer you. In this you are not just, for God is greater than man.
- 13
Why do you strive against him, because he doesn’t give account of any of his matters?
- 14
For God speaks once, yes twice, though man pays no attention.
- 15
In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls on men, in slumbering on the bed,
- 16
then he opens the ears of men, and seals their instruction,
- 17
that he may withdraw man from his purpose, and hide pride from man.
- 18
He keeps back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword.
- 19
“He is chastened also with pain on his bed, with continual strife in his bones,
- 20
so that his life abhors bread, and his soul dainty food.
- 21
His flesh is so consumed away that it can’t be seen. His bones that were not seen stick out.
- 22
Yes, his soul draws near to the pit, and his life to the destroyers.
- 23
“If there is beside him an angel, an interpreter, one among a thousand, to show to man what is right for him,
- 24
then God is gracious to him, and says, ‘Deliver him from going down to the pit, I have found a ransom.’
- 25
His flesh will be fresher than a child’s. He returns to the days of his youth.
- 26
He prays to God, and he is favorable to him, so that he sees his face with joy. He restores to man his righteousness.
- 27
He sings before men, and says, ‘I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it didn’t profit me.
- 28
He has redeemed my soul from going into the pit. My life will see the light.’
- 29
“Behold, God does all these things, twice, yes three times, with a man,
- 30
to bring back his soul from the pit, that he may be enlightened with the light of the living.
- 31
Mark well, Job, and listen to me. Hold your peace, and I will speak.
- 32
If you have anything to say, answer me. Speak, for I desire to justify you.
- 33
If not, listen to me. Hold your peace, and I will teach you wisdom.”

POR tanto, Job, oye ahora mis razones, y escucha todas mis palabras.
- 2
He aquí yo abriré ahora mi boca, y mi lengua hablará en mi garganta.
- 3
Mis razones declararán la rectitud de mi corazón, y mis labios proferirán pura sabiduría.
- 4
El espíritu de Dios me hizo, y la inspiración del Omnipotente me dió vida.
- 5
Si pudieres, respóndeme; dispón tus palabras , está delante de mí.
- 6
Heme aquí á mí en lugar de Dios, conforme á tu dicho: de lodo soy yo también formado.
- 7
He aquí que mi terror no te espantará, ni mi mano se agravará sobre ti.
- 8
De cierto tú dijiste á oídos míos, y yo oí la voz de tus palabras que decían :
- 9
Yo soy limpio y sin defecto; y soy inocente, y no hay maldad en mí.
- 10
He aquí que él buscó achaques contra mí, y me tiene por su enemigo;
- 11
Puso mis pies en el cepo, y guardó todas mis sendas.
- 12
He aquí en esto no has hablado justamente: yo te responderé que mayor es Dios que el hombre.
- 13
¿Por qué tomaste pleito contra él? Porque él no da cuenta de ninguna de sus razones.
- 14
Sin embargo, en una ó en dos maneras habla Dios; mas el hombre no entiende.
- 15
Por sueño de visión nocturna, cuando el sueño cae sobre los hombres, cuando se adormecen sobre el lecho;
- 16
Entonces revela al oído de los hombres, y les señala su consejo;
- 17
Para quitar al hombre de su obra, y apartar del varón la soberbia.
- 18
Detendrá su alma de corrupción, y su vida de que pase á cuchillo.
- 19
También sobre su cama es castigado con dolor fuerte en todos sus huesos,
- 20
Que le hace que su vida aborrezca el pan, y su alma la comida suave.
- 21
Su carne desfallece sin verse, y sus huesos, que antes no se veían, aparecen.
- 22
Y su alma se acerca al sepulcro, y su vida á los que causan la muerte.
- 23
Si tuviera cerca de él algún elocuente anunciador muy escogido, que anuncie al hombre su deber;
- 24
Que le diga que Dios tuvo de él misericordia, que lo libró de descender al sepulcro, que halló redención:
- 25
Enterneceráse su carne más que de niño, volverá á los días de su mocedad.
- 26
Orará á Dios, y le amará, y verá su faz con júbilo: y él restituirá al hombre su justicia.
- 27
El mira sobre los hombres; y el que dijere: Pequé, y pervertí lo recto, y no me ha aprovechado;
- 28
Dios redimirá su alma, que no pase al sepulcro, y su vida se verá en luz.
- 29
He aquí, todas estas cosas hace Dios dos y tres veces con el hombre;
- 30
Para apartar su alma del sepulcro, y para iluminarlo con la luz de los vivientes.
- 31
Escucha, Job, y óyeme; calla, y yo hablaré.
- 32
Que si tuvieres razones, respóndeme: habla, porque yo te quiero justificar.
- 33
Y si no, óyeme tú á mí; calla, y enseñarte he sabiduría.
