Job 18
Dios Habla Hoy
Job 18
Dios Habla Hoy
Bildad
18 ¿Cuándo va a dejar de hablar esta gente?
Si fuera razonable, podríamos hablar.
3 ¿Por qué se nos trata como animales
y se nos considera estúpidos?
4 ¿Crees tú que por desgarrarte rabiosamente
va a quedar desierta la tierra
o las rocas van a cambiar de lugar?
5 Al malvado se le apagará la luz,
y su fuego no volverá a dar llama.
6 Su lámpara se apagará;
en su casa no brillará la luz.
7 Su paso firme perderá fuerza,
y quedará atrapado en su propia trampa.
8 Se pondrá una red a su paso,
y en esa red quedará atrapado.
9 Se tenderá un lazo a sus pies,
y alrededor del tobillo se le cerrará el nudo.
10 La trampa estará oculta en el camino
para atraparle cuando pase.
11 Por todas partes se siente amenazado;
se siente perseguido a cada paso.
12 Sus fuerzas se acaban por el hambre;
la desgracia está lista a caerle encima.
13 La enfermedad, hija preferida de la muerte,
le devora la carne poco a poco.
14 Arrancado es también de la paz de su hogar
y llevado a rastras ante el rey del terror.
15 Se prende fuego a su casa;
sus posesiones son rociadas con azufre.
16 Es como un árbol de raíces secas
y ramas marchitas.
17 Su recuerdo se borrará de la tierra
y no se volverá a pronunciar su nombre.
18 Lo arrojarán de la luz a las tinieblas;
lo expulsarán de este mundo.
19 No tendrá descendientes en su pueblo;
nadie en su casa quedará con vida.
20 Cuando sepan su destino, en oriente y occidente
quedarán espantados, llenos de terror.
21 En eso acaba la vida del malvado,
del hombre que desprecia a Dios.

18 Then Bildad the Shuhite(A) replied:
2 “When will you end these speeches?(B)
Be sensible, and then we can talk.
3 Why are we regarded as cattle(C)
and considered stupid in your sight?(D)
4 You who tear yourself(E) to pieces in your anger,(F)
is the earth to be abandoned for your sake?
Or must the rocks be moved from their place?(G)
5 “The lamp of a wicked man is snuffed out;(H)
the flame of his fire stops burning.(I)
6 The light in his tent(J) becomes dark;(K)
the lamp beside him goes out.(L)
7 The vigor(M) of his step is weakened;(N)
his own schemes(O) throw him down.(P)
8 His feet thrust him into a net;(Q)
he wanders into its mesh.
9 A trap seizes him by the heel;
a snare(R) holds him fast.(S)
10 A noose(T) is hidden for him on the ground;
a trap(U) lies in his path.(V)
11 Terrors(W) startle him on every side(X)
and dog(Y) his every step.
12 Calamity(Z) is hungry(AA) for him;
disaster(AB) is ready for him when he falls.(AC)
13 It eats away parts of his skin;(AD)
death’s firstborn devours his limbs.(AE)
14 He is torn from the security of his tent(AF)
and marched off to the king(AG) of terrors.(AH)
15 Fire resides[a] in his tent;(AI)
burning sulfur(AJ) is scattered over his dwelling.
16 His roots dry up below(AK)
and his branches wither above.(AL)
17 The memory of him perishes from the earth;(AM)
he has no name(AN) in the land.(AO)
18 He is driven from light into the realm of darkness(AP)
and is banished(AQ) from the world.(AR)
19 He has no offspring(AS) or descendants(AT) among his people,
no survivor(AU) where once he lived.(AV)
20 People of the west are appalled(AW) at his fate;(AX)
those of the east are seized with horror.
21 Surely such is the dwelling(AY) of an evil man;(AZ)
such is the place(BA) of one who does not know God.”(BB)
