Listen completely [to] speech my and let it be this consolations your.
3 Let me say what is in my mind, and after that, go on making sport of me.
Bear with me and I I will speak and after have spoken I you will mock.
4 As for me, is my outcry against man? is it then to be wondered at if my spirit is troubled?
¿ I to humankind [is] complaint my and if why? not will it be short spirit my.
5 Take note of me and be full of wonder, put your hand on your mouth.
Turn to me and be appalled and put a hand over a mouth.
6 At the very thought of it my flesh is shaking with fear.
And if I remember [this] and I am disturbed and it takes hold of flesh my shuddering.
7 Why is life given to the evil-doers? why do they become old and strong in power?

8 Their children are ever with them, and their offspring before their eyes.
Offspring their [is] established before them with them and descendants their to eyes their.

15 What is the Ruler of all, that we may give him worship? and what profit is it to us to make prayer to him?

16 Truly, is not their well-being in their power? (The purpose of the evil-doers is far from me.)
There! not [is] in own hand their prosperity their [the] counsel of wicked [people] it is far from me.
17 How frequently is the light of the evil-doers put out, or does trouble come on them? how frequently does his wrath take them with cords?
How often? - [the] lamp of wicked [people] is it extinguished and it may come? on them calamity their pain does he apportion? in anger his.
18 How frequently are they as dry stems before the wind, or as grass taken away by the storm-wind?
Are they? like straw before a wind and like chaff [which] it has stolen it a storm-wind.
19 You say, God keeps punishment stored up for his children. Let him send it on the man himself, so that he may have the punishment of it!

20 Let his eyes see his trouble, and let him be full of the wrath of the Ruler of all!
Let them see (own eyes his *Q(K)*) destruction his and from [the] rage of [the] Almighty let him drink.
21 For what interest has he in his house after him, when the number of his months is ended?
For what? [is] pleasure his in household his after him and [the] number of months his they have been cut off.
22 Is anyone able to give teaching to God? for he is the judge of those who are on high.

23 One comes to his end in complete well-being, full of peace and quiet:
This [one] he will die with limb[s] of completeness his all of him [is] at ease and at ease.
24 His buckets are full of milk, and there is no loss of strength in his bones.
Pails his they are full milk and [the] marrow of bones his it is watered.
25 And another comes to his end with a bitter soul, without ever tasting good.

Here! I know thoughts your and [the] schemes on me you do violence.
28 For you say, Where is the house of the ruler, and where is the tent of the evil-doer?
For you say where? [is the] house of a noble [person] and where? [is the] tent of - [the] dwelling places of wicked [people].
29 Have you not put the question to the travellers, and do you not take note of their experience?
¿ Not have you asked [those who] pass by of [the] road and signs their not do you recognize?
30 How the evil man goes free in the day of trouble, and has salvation in the day of wrath?
That to a day of calamity he is spared an evil [person] to a day of furi they are brought forth.
31 Who will make his way clear to his face? and if he has done a thing, who gives him punishment for it?
Who? will he tell on face his way his and [that which] he he has done who? will he repay to him.
32 He is taken to his last resting-place, and keeps watch over it.
And he to [the] grave he will be borne and over a tomb someone will keep watch.
33 The earth of the valley covering his bones is sweet to him, and all men come after him, as there were unnumbered before him.
They will be sweet to him [the] clods of [the] wadi and after him every person he will follow and before him there not [is] number.
34 Why then do you give me comfort with words in which there is no profit, when you see that there is nothing in your answers but deceit?
And how? will you comfort me vanity and answers your it remains unfaithfulness.
