< Job 4 >

1 And Eliphaz the Temanite answers and says:
And he answered Eliphaz the Temanite and he said.
2 “Has one tried a word with you? You are weary! And who is able to keep in words?
¿ Did someone attempt a word to you will you be impatient? and to restrain words who? is he able.
3 Behold, you have instructed many, And feeble hands you make strong.
There! you have instructed many [people] and hands slack you strengthened.
4 Your words raise up the stumbling one, And you strengthen bowing knees.
[the] stumbling They raised! words your and knees bending you strengthened.
5 But now, it comes to you, And you are weary; It strikes to you, and you are troubled.
For now - it comes to you and you have become impatient it reaches to you and you have become dismayed.
6 Is your reverence not your confidence? Your hope—the perfection of your ways?
¿ Not [is] fear your confidence your hope your and [the] integrity of ways your.
7 Now remember, Who, being innocent, has perished? And where have the upright been cut off?
Remember please who? that innocent did he perish and where? upright [people] were they destroyed.
8 As I have seen—plowers of iniquity, And sowers of misery, reap it!
Just as I have seen plowers of wickedness and sowers of mischief they harvest it.
9 From the breath of God they perish, And from the spirit of His anger [are] consumed.
From [the] breath of God they perish and from [the] breath of anger his they come to an end.
10 The roaring of a lion, And the voice of a fierce lion, And teeth of young lions have been broken.
[the] roaring of A lion and [the] sound of a lion and [the] teeth of young lions they are broken out.
11 An old lion is perishing without prey, And the whelps of the lioness separate.
A lion [is] perishing because not prey and [the] young of a lion they are scattered.
12 And a thing is secretly brought to me, And my ear receives a little of it.
And to me a word it was brought secretly and it received ear my a whisper of it.
13 In thoughts from visions of the night, In the falling of deep sleep on men,
In disquieting thoughts from visions of [the] night when falls deep sleep on people.
14 Fear has met me, and trembling, And the multitude of my bones caused to fear.
Fear it happened to me and trembling and [the] multitude of bones my it caused to tremble.
15 And a spirit passes before my face, The hair of my flesh stands up;
And a wind over face my it passed over it made bristle [the] hair of flesh my.
16 It stands, and I do not discern its aspect, A likeness [is] before my eyes, Silence! And I hear a voice:
It stood still - and not I recognized appearance its a form [was] to before eyes my a whisper and a voice I heard.
17 Is mortal man more righteous than God? Is a man cleaner than his Maker?
¿ A person from God will he be righteous or? from maker his will he be pure a man.
18 Behold, He puts no credence in His servants, Nor sets praise in His messengers.
There! in servants his not he trusts and against messengers his he charges error.
19 Also—the inhabitants of houses of clay (Whose foundation [is] in the dust, They bruise them before a moth).
Also - [those who] dwell of houses of clay which [is] in the dust foundation their people crush them before a moth.
20 From morning to evening are beaten down, Without any regarding, they perish forever.
From morning to evening they are crushed to pieces because not [one who] sets to perpetuity they perish.
21 Has their excellence not been removed with them? They die, and not in wisdom!”
¿ Not has it been pulled up tent cord their in them will they die? and not with wisdom.
