Job 19
La Palabra (Hispanoamérica)
Todos atacan a Job
19 Job respondió así:
2 ¿Hasta cuándo seguirán atormentándome,
machacándome con tanta palabrería?
3 Ya me han humillado bastante,
me han atacado sin reparos.
4 Aun pensando que hubiera pecado,
sólo a mí afectaría mi culpa.
5 Pero ya que quieren prevalecer sobre mí
usando mi dolor como prueba,
6 sepan bien que Dios me ha atacado,
que me ha atrapado en sus redes.
7 Si grito “violencia”, nadie responde;
imploro “socorro”, pero no hay justicia.
8 Ha vallado mi camino y me impide pasar,
ha ocultado mi senda con densa oscuridad.
9 Me ha despojado de mi honor,
ha dejado mi cabeza sin corona.
10 Me socava por doquier y me deshago,
ha arrancado la raíz de mi esperanza.
11 Ha atizado su cólera contra mí,
me trata como a un enemigo.
12 Llegan sus tropas en masa,
construyen rampas de ataque,
asedian mi tienda por doquier.
13 Mis parientes se alejan de mi lado,
mis conocidos me tienen por extraño;
14 me abandonan vecinos y deudos,
se olvidan de mí mis invitados.
15 Mis siervas me tienen por intruso,
me tratan igual que a un extraño;
16 mi siervo no responde a mi llamada,
aunque se lo pida por favor.
17 Mi aliento repugna a mi esposa,
doy asco a mis propios hermanos.
18 Incluso los niños me desprecian;
me levanto y se burlan de mí.
19 Todos mis íntimos me detestan,
mis mejores amigos me atacan.
20 Mis huesos se pegan a la piel y a la carne,
he escapado con la piel de mis dientes.
21 ¡Piedad, amigos míos, piedad,
que me ha herido la mano de Dios!
22 ¿Por qué, igual que Dios, me acosan
y no se hartan de escarnecerme?
23 ¡Ojalá se escribieran mis palabras!
¡Ojalá se grabaran en cobre,
24 con cincel de hierro y con plomo,
impresas para siempre en la roca!
25 Yo sé que vive mi Vengador,
que se alzará el último sobre el polvo,
26 que después que me arranquen la piel,
ya sin carne, podré ver a Dios.
27 Sí, yo mismo lo contemplaré;
mis ojos lo verán, no un extraño.
¡Tal ansia me consume por dentro!
28 Ustedes dicen: “¿Cómo lo acosaremos?
¿Qué pretexto encontraremos contra él?”.
29 Pero tiemblen entonces ante la espada
(pues su cólera merece la espada)
y piensen que hay un juicio por llegar.

Job
19 Then Job replied:
2 “How long will you torment(A) me
and crush(B) me with words?
3 Ten times(C) now you have reproached(D) me;
shamelessly you attack me.
4 If it is true that I have gone astray,
my error(E) remains my concern alone.
5 If indeed you would exalt yourselves above me(F)
and use my humiliation against me,
6 then know that God has wronged me(G)
and drawn his net(H) around me.(I)
7 “Though I cry, ‘Violence!’ I get no response;(J)
though I call for help,(K) there is no justice.(L)
8 He has blocked my way so I cannot pass;(M)
he has shrouded my paths in darkness.(N)
9 He has stripped(O) me of my honor(P)
and removed the crown from my head.(Q)
10 He tears me down(R) on every side till I am gone;
he uproots my hope(S) like a tree.(T)
11 His anger(U) burns against me;
he counts me among his enemies.(V)
12 His troops advance in force;(W)
they build a siege ramp(X) against me
and encamp around my tent.(Y)
13 “He has alienated my family(Z) from me;
my acquaintances are completely estranged from me.(AA)
14 My relatives have gone away;
my closest friends(AB) have forgotten me.
15 My guests(AC) and my female servants(AD) count me a foreigner;
they look on me as on a stranger.
16 I summon my servant, but he does not answer,
though I beg him with my own mouth.
17 My breath is offensive to my wife;
I am loathsome(AE) to my own family.
18 Even the little boys(AF) scorn me;
when I appear, they ridicule me.(AG)
19 All my intimate friends(AH) detest me;(AI)
those I love have turned against me.(AJ)
20 I am nothing but skin and bones;(AK)
I have escaped only by the skin of my teeth.[a]
21 “Have pity on me, my friends,(AL) have pity,
for the hand of God has struck(AM) me.
22 Why do you pursue(AN) me as God does?(AO)
Will you never get enough of my flesh?(AP)
23 “Oh, that my words were recorded,
that they were written on a scroll,(AQ)
24 that they were inscribed with an iron tool(AR) on[b] lead,
or engraved in rock forever!(AS)
25 I know that my redeemer[c](AT) lives,(AU)
and that in the end he will stand on the earth.[d]
26 And after my skin has been destroyed,
yet[e] in[f] my flesh I will see God;(AV)
27 I myself will see him
with my own eyes(AW)—I, and not another.
How my heart yearns(AX) within me!
