Então Elifaz, o temanita, respondeu:

Y RESPONDIÓ Eliphaz Temanita, y dijo:

Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said,

Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered,

“Pode um homem ser útil a Deus? Certamente aquele que é sábio é útil a si mesmo.

¿Traerá el hombre provecho á Dios, porque el sabio sea provechoso á sí mismo?

Can a man be profitable unto God, as he that is wise may be profitable unto himself?

“Can a man be profitable to God? Surely he who is wise is profitable to himself.

Traz algum prazer ao Todo-Poderoso que você seja justo? Ou há algum benefício para ele em que você torne os seus caminhos perfeitos?

¿Tiene su contentamiento el Omnipotente en que tú seas justificado, ó provecho de que tú hagas perfectos tus caminos?

Is it any pleasure to the Almighty, that thou art righteous? or is it gain to him, that thou makest thy ways perfect?

Is it any pleasure to the Almighty that you are righteous? Or does it benefit him that you make your ways perfect?

É por causa da sua piedade que ele o repreende, e que ele entra em juízo contra você?

¿Castigaráte acaso, ó vendrá contigo á juicio porque te teme?

Will he reprove thee for fear of thee? will he enter with thee into judgment?

Is it for your piety that he reproves you, that he enters with you into judgment?

A sua maldade não é grande? E não há fim para as suas iniquidades.

Por cierto tu malicia es grande, y tus maldades no tienen fin.

Is not thy wickedness great? and thine iniquities infinite?

Isn’t your wickedness great? Neither is there any end to your iniquities.

Pois você tomou penhores do seu irmão sem motivo, e despojou os nus de suas roupas.

Porque sacaste prenda á tus hermanos sin causa, é hiciste desnudar las ropas de los desnudos.

For thou hast taken a pledge from thy brother for nought, and stripped the naked of their clothing.

For you have taken pledges from your brother for nothing, and stripped the naked of their clothing.

Você não deu água para o cansado beber, e reteve o pão do faminto.

No diste de beber agua al cansado, y detuviste el pan al hambriento.

Thou hast not given water to the weary to drink, and thou hast withholden bread from the hungry.

You haven’t given water to the weary to drink, and you have withheld bread from the hungry.

Mas quanto ao homem poderoso, a terra era dele; e o homem honrado habitava nela.

Empero el hombre pudiente tuvo la tierra; y habitó en ella el distinguido.

But as for the mighty man, he had the earth; and the honourable man dwelt in it.

But as for the mighty man, he had the earth. The honorable man, he lived in it.

Você mandou as viúvas embora de mãos vazias, e os braços dos órfãos foram quebrados.

Las viudas enviaste vacías, y los brazos de los huérfanos fueron quebrados.

Thou hast sent widows away empty, and the arms of the fatherless have been broken.

You have sent widows away empty, and the arms of the fatherless have been broken.

Por isso, há armadilhas ao seu redor, e o pavor repentino o perturba,

Por tanto hay lazos alrededor de ti, y te turba espanto repentino;

Therefore snares are round about thee, and sudden fear troubleth thee;

Therefore snares are around you. Sudden fear troubles you,

ou trevas, de modo que você não pode ver, e inundações de águas o cobrem.

O tinieblas, porque no veas; y abundancia de agua te cubre.

Or darkness, that thou canst not see; and abundance of waters cover thee.

or darkness, so that you can not see, and floods of waters cover you.

“Deus não está nas alturas dos céus? Veja a altura das estrelas, quão elevadas elas estão!

¿No está Dios en la altura de los cielos? Mira lo encumbrado de las estrellas, cuán elevadas están.

Is not God in the height of heaven? and behold the height of the stars, how high they are!

“Isn’t God in the heights of heaven? See the height of the stars, how high they are!

E você diz: ‘O que Deus sabe? Pode ele julgar através das densas trevas?

¿Y dirás tú: Qué sabe Dios? ¿cómo juzgará por medio de la oscuridad?

And thou sayest, How doth God know? can he judge through the dark cloud?

You say, ‘What does God know? Can he judge through the thick darkness?

Nuvens espessas o cobrem, de modo que ele não vê; ele caminha sobre a abóbada do céu.’

Las nubes son su escondedero, y no ve; y por el circuito del cielo se pasea.

Thick clouds are a covering to him, that he seeth not; and he walketh in the circuit of heaven.

Thick clouds are a covering to him, so that he doesn’t see. He walks on the vault of the sky.’

Você continuará no antigo caminho, que os homens perversos trilharam?

¿Quieres tú guardar la senda antigua, que pisaron los hombres perversos?

Hast thou marked the old way which wicked men have trodden?

Will you keep the old way, which wicked men have trodden,

Eles foram arrebatados antes do seu tempo; seus alicerces foram arrastados como um rio.

Los cuales fueron cortados antes de tiempo, cuyo fundamento fué como un río derramado:

Which were cut down out of time, whose foundation was overflown with a flood:

who were snatched away before their time, whose foundation was poured out as a stream,

Eles disseram a Deus: ‘Afaste-se de nós!’ e: ‘O que o Todo-Poderoso pode fazer por nós?’

Que decían á Dios: Apártate de nosotros. ¿Y qué les había hecho el Omnipotente?

Which said unto God, Depart from us: and what can the Almighty do for them?

who said to God, ‘Depart from us!’ and, ‘What can the Almighty do for us?’

Contudo, ele encheu as casas deles de coisas boas; mas o conselho dos ímpios está longe de mim.

Habíales él henchido sus casas de bienes. Sea empero el consejo de ellos lejos de mí.

Yet he filled their houses with good things: but the counsel of the wicked is far from me.

Yet he filled their houses with good things, but the counsel of the wicked is far from me.

Os justos veem isso e se alegram; os inocentes zombam deles,

Verán los justos y se gozarán; y el inocente los escarnecerá, diciendo:

The righteous see it, and are glad: and the innocent laugh them to scorn.

The righteous see it, and are glad. The innocent ridicule them,

dizendo: ‘Certamente aqueles que se levantaram contra nós foram destruídos, e o fogo consumiu o que restou deles.’

Fué cortada nuestra sustancia, habiendo consumido el fuego el resto de ellos.

Whereas our substance is not cut down, but the remnant of them the fire consumeth.

saying, ‘Surely those who rose up against us are cut off. The fire has consumed their remnant.’

“Apegue-se a ele agora, e tenha paz; assim, o bem virá a você.

Amístate ahora con él, y tendrás paz; y por ello te vendrá bien.

Acquaint now thyself with him, and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee.

Toma ahora la ley de su boca, y pon sus palabras en tu corazón.

Please receive instruction from his mouth, and lay up his words in your heart.

Se você se voltar para o Todo-Poderoso, você será edificado; se você afastar a injustiça para longe das suas tendas.

Si te tornares al Omnipotente, serás edificado; alejarás de tu tienda la aflicción;

If thou return to the Almighty, thou shalt be built up, thou shalt put away iniquity far from thy tabernacles.

If you return to the Almighty, you will be built up, if you put away unrighteousness far from your tents.

Coloque o seu tesouro no pó, e o ouro de Ofir entre as pedras dos ribeiros.

Y tendrás más oro que tierra, y como piedras de arroyos oro de Ophir;

Then shalt thou lay up gold as dust, and the gold of Ophir as the stones of the brooks.

Lay your treasure in the dust, the gold of Ophir among the stones of the brooks.

O Todo-Poderoso será o seu tesouro, e prata preciosa para você.

Y el Todopoderoso será tu defensa, y tendrás plata á montones.

Yea, the Almighty shall be thy defence, and thou shalt have plenty of silver.

The Almighty will be your treasure, and precious silver to you.

Pois então você se deleitará no Todo-Poderoso, e levantará o seu rosto para Deus.

Thou shalt make thy prayer unto him, and he shall hear thee, and thou shalt pay thy vows.

Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee: and the light shall shine upon thy ways.

Quando o abaterem, você dirá: ‘Levante-se.’ Ele salvará a pessoa humilde.

Cuando fueren abatidos, dirás tú: Ensalzamiento habrá: y Dios salvará al humilde de ojos.

When men are cast down, then thou shalt say, There is lifting up; and he shall save the humble person.

When they cast down, you will say, ‘be lifted up.’ He will save the humble person.

Ele livrará até mesmo aquele que não é inocente; sim, ele será liberto pela pureza das suas mãos.”

El libertará la isla del inocente; y por la limpieza de tus manos será librada.

He shall deliver the island of the innocent: and it is delivered by the pureness of thine hands.

He will even deliver him who is not innocent. Yes, he will be delivered through the cleanness of your hands.”
