Job 35
La Palabra (España)
Dios no hace caso a los malvados
35 Elihú continuó su discurso:
2 ¿Crees que es justo afirmar:
“Tengo razón contra Dios”?
3 O decir: “¿Qué más le da?
¿qué saco yo con no pecar?”.
4 Voy a responder a tus argumentos
y, de paso, a los de tus amigos.
5 Contempla atento el cielo,
fíjate en las nubes tan altas.
6 ¿Qué mal le causas a Dios cuando pecas
o en qué le afectan tus numerosos delitos?
7 Si eres honrado, ¿qué le das
o qué recibe de tu mano?
8 Tu maldad afectaría a alguien como tú;
tu honradez, a los seres humanos.
9 La gente protesta bajo la dura opresión,
pide socorro ante el poder del tirano;
10 pero no dice: “¿Dónde está mi Hacedor,
que llena la noche de cantos de júbilo
11 y nos hace más sabios
que las bestias de la tierra,
más inteligentes que las aves del cielo?”.
12 Algunos protestan, pero no responde;
el orgullo de los malvados tiene la culpa.
13 Dios no escucha falsedades,
el Todopoderoso no hace ni caso.
14 Y menos cuando dices: “No lo veo,
le he expuesto mi causa y espero”.
15 Pero como su cólera no estalla
ni parece prestar atención al delito,
16 Job abre su boca y echa viento,
multiplicando palabras sin sentido.
Job 35
King James Version
35 Elihu spake moreover, and said,
2 Thinkest thou this to be right, that thou saidst, My righteousness is more than God's?
3 For thou saidst, What advantage will it be unto thee? and, What profit shall I have, if I be cleansed from my sin?
4 I will answer thee, and thy companions with thee.
5 Look unto the heavens, and see; and behold the clouds which are higher than thou.
6 If thou sinnest, what doest thou against him? or if thy transgressions be multiplied, what doest thou unto him?
7 If thou be righteous, what givest thou him? or what receiveth he of thine hand?
8 Thy wickedness may hurt a man as thou art; and thy righteousness may profit the son of man.
9 By reason of the multitude of oppressions they make the oppressed to cry: they cry out by reason of the arm of the mighty.
10 But none saith, Where is God my maker, who giveth songs in the night;
11 Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, and maketh us wiser than the fowls of heaven?
12 There they cry, but none giveth answer, because of the pride of evil men.
13 Surely God will not hear vanity, neither will the Almighty regard it.
14 Although thou sayest thou shalt not see him, yet judgment is before him; therefore trust thou in him.
15 But now, because it is not so, he hath visited in his anger; yet he knoweth it not in great extremity:
16 Therefore doth Job open his mouth in vain; he multiplieth words without knowledge.
Job 35
Ang Biblia, 2001
35 At si Elihu ay sumagot at sinabi,
2 “Iniisip mo bang ito'y makatuwiran?
Sinasabi mo bang, ‘Sa harapan ng Diyos ito'y aking karapatan,’
3 na iyong tinatanong, ‘Ano bang iyong kalamangan?
Paanong mas mabuti ako kung ako'y nakagawa ng kasalanan?’
4 Sasagutin kita
at ang iyong mga kaibigang kasama mo.
5 Tumingala ka sa langit at tingnan mo;
at masdan mo ang mga ulap, na mas mataas kaysa iyo.
6 Kung(A) ikaw ay nagkasala, anong iyong nagawa laban sa kanya?
At kung ang iyong mga pagsuway ay dumarami, anong iyong ginagawa sa kanya?
7 Kung ikaw ay matuwid, anong sa kanya'y iyong ibinibigay;
o ano bang tinatanggap niya mula sa iyong kamay?
8 Ang iyong kasamaan ay nakakapinsala sa ibang gaya mo;
at ang iyong katuwiran, ay sa ibang mga tao.
9 “Dahil sa dami ng mga kaapihan, ang mga tao'y sumisigaw;
sila'y humihingi ng saklolo dahil sa kamay ng makapangyarihan.
10 Ngunit walang nagsasabing, ‘Nasaan ang Diyos na sa akin ay lumalang,
na siyang nagbibigay ng awit sa kinagabihan,
11 na siyang nagtuturo sa atin ng higit kaysa mga hayop sa daigdig,
at ginagawa tayong mas matalino kaysa mga ibon sa himpapawid?’
12 Tumatawag sila roon, ngunit siya'y hindi sumasagot,
dahil sa kapalaluan ng mga taong buktot.
13 Tunay na hindi pinapakinggan ng Diyos ang walang kabuluhang karaingan,
ni pinapahalagahan man ito ng Makapangyarihan sa lahat.
14 Lalo pa nga kung iyong sinasabing hindi mo siya nakikita,
na ang usapin ay nasa harap niya, at iyong hinihintay siya!
15 At ngayon, sapagkat ang galit niya'y hindi nagpaparusa,
at ang kasamaan ay hindi niya sinusunod,
16 ibinubuka ni Job ang kanyang bibig sa walang kabuluhan,
siya'y nagpaparami ng mga salita na walang kaalaman.”
Job 35
English Standard Version
Elihu Condemns Job
35 And Elihu answered and said:
2 “Do you think this to be just?
Do you say, (A)‘It is my right before God,’
3 that you ask, (B)‘What advantage have I?
How am I better off than if I had sinned?’
4 I will answer you
and (C)your friends with you.
5 (D)Look at the heavens, and see;
and behold the clouds, which are higher than you.
6 If you have sinned, (E)what do you accomplish against him?
And if your transgressions are multiplied, what do you do to him?
7 (F)If you are righteous, what do you give to him?
Or what does he receive from your hand?
8 Your wickedness concerns a man like yourself,
and your righteousness (G)a son of man.
9 “Because of the multitude of (H)oppressions people (I)cry out;
they call for help because of the arm of (J)the mighty.[a]
10 But none says, ‘Where is God my (K)Maker,
who gives (L)songs in the night,
11 who teaches us (M)more than the beasts of the earth
and makes us wiser than the birds of the heavens?’
12 There they (N)cry out, but he does not answer,
because of the pride of evil men.
13 Surely God does not hear an empty cry,
nor does the Almighty regard it.
14 How much less when you say that you (O)do not see him,
that the case is before him, and you are (P)waiting for him!
15 And now, because (Q)his anger does not punish,
and he does not take much note of transgression,[b]
16 Job opens his mouth in empty talk;
he (R)multiplies words (S)without knowledge.”
