< Job 15 >
1 And Eliphaz the Temanite made answer and said,
And he answered Eliphaz the Temanite and he said.
2 Will a wise man make answer with knowledge of no value, or will he give birth to the east wind?
¿ A wise [person] does he answer knowledge of wind so may he fill? east wind belly his.
3 Will he make arguments with words in which is no profit, and with sayings which have no value?
Does he argue? with a word [which] not it is of use and words [which] not anyone profits by them.
4 Truly, you make the fear of God without effect, so that the time of quiet worship before God is made less by your outcry.
Also you you annul fear so you may diminish meditation before God.
5 For your mouth is guided by your sin, and you have taken the tongue of the false for yourself.
For it teaches iniquity your mouth your so you may choose [the] tongue of crafty [people].
6 It is by your mouth, even yours, that you are judged to be in the wrong, and not by me; and your lips give witness against you.
It condemns as guilty you own mouth your and not I and own lips your they testify against you.
7 Were you the first man to come into the world? or did you come into being before the hills?
¿ First human being were you born and before [the] hills were you brought forth?
8 Were you present at the secret meeting of God? and have you taken all wisdom for yourself?
¿ In [the] council of God do you listen and you may restrain? to yourself wisdom.
9 What knowledge have you which we have not? is there anything in your mind which is not in ours?
What? do you know and not we know do you understand? and not [is] with us it.
10 With us are men who are grey-haired and full of years, much older than your father.
Both [the] gray haired as well as [the] aged [are] among us [those] old more than father your days.
11 Are the comforts of God not enough for you, and the gentle word which was said to you?
¿ [too] little For you [are] [the] consolations of God and a word to gentleness with you.
12 Why is your heart uncontrolled, and why are your eyes lifted up;
Why? does it carry away you heart your and why? do they flash! eyes your.
13 So that you are turning your spirit against God, and letting such words go out of your mouth?
That you will turn against God spirit your and you will bring out from mouth your words.
14 What is man, that he may be clean? and how may the son of woman be upright?
What? [is] a person that he will be pure and that he will be righteous [one] born of a woman.
15 Truly, he puts no faith in his holy ones, and the heavens are not clean in his eyes;
There! (in holy [ones] his *Q(K)*) not he trusts and [the] heavens not they are pure in view his.
16 How much less one who is disgusting and unclean, a man who takes in evil like water!
Indeed? for [one who] is abhorrent and [one who] is corrupt a person [who] drinks like water unrighteousness.
17 Take note and give ear to my words; and I will say what I have seen:
I will tell you listen to me and what I have seen and I will recount.
18 (The things which wise men have got from their fathers, and have not kept secret from us;
[that] which Wise [people] they have told and not they have hidden from ancestors their.
19 For only to them was the land given, and no strange people were among them: )
To them to alone them it was given the land and not he passed a stranger in midst their.
20 The evil man is in pain all his days, and the number of the years stored up for the cruel is small.
All [the] days of a wicked [person] he [is] writhing in pain and [the] number of years [which] they have been stored up for ruthless [person].
21 A sound of fear is in his ears; in time of peace destruction will come on him:
[the] sound of Dread [is] in ears his in peace a destroyer he will come to him.
22 He has no hope of coming safe out of the dark, and his fate will be the sword;
Not he believes to return from darkness (and [is] watched *Q(k)*) he to [the] sword.
23 He is wandering about in search of bread, saying, Where is it? and he is certain that the day of trouble is ready for him:
[is] wandering He for food where? he knows - that [has been] prepared in hand his a day of darkness.
24 He is greatly in fear of the dark day, trouble and pain overcome him:
They terrify him anxiety and distress it overpowers him like a king - ready for battle.
25 Because his hand is stretched out against God, and his heart is lifted up against the Ruler of all,
For he has stretched out against God hand his and to [the] Almighty he behaves proudly.
26 Running against him like a man of war, covered by his thick breastplate; even like a king ready for the fight,
He runs against him with a neck with [the] thickness of [the] bosses of shields his.
27 Because his face is covered with fat, and his body has become thick;
For he has covered face his with fat his and he has made fat on loins.
28 And he has made his resting-place in the towns which have been pulled down, in houses where no man had a right to be, whose fate was to become masses of broken walls.
And he dwelt - cities destroyed houses [which] not people will dwell themselves which they are destined for heaps of stones.
29 He does not get wealth for himself, and is unable to keep what he has got; the heads of his grain are not bent down to the earth.
Not he will be rich and not it will endure wealth his and not it will stretch out to the land property their.
30 He does not come out of the dark; his branches are burned by the flame, and the wind takes away his bud.
Not he will depart - from darkness young shoot[s] his it will dry up a flame so he may depart by [the] breath of mouth his.
31 Let him not put his hope in what is false, falling into error: for he will get deceit as his reward.
May not he trust (in worthlessness *Q(K)*) he has been led astray for worthlessness it will be recompense his.
32 His branch is cut off before its time, and his leaf is no longer green.
On not day his it will be completed and palm branch his not it will grow luxuriant.
33 He is like a vine whose grapes do not come to full growth, or an olive-tree dropping its flowers.
He will wrong like vine unripe grape[s] his and he will shed like olive tree blossom his.
34 For the band of the evil-doers gives no fruit, and the tents of those who give wrong decisions for reward are burned with fire.
For a company of [the] godless [is] barren and fire it consumes [the] tents of a bribe.
35 Evil has made them with child, and they give birth to trouble; and the fruit of their body is shame for themselves.
They conceive trouble and they give birth to wickedness and belly their it prepares deceit.
