| BSB 1 And Elihu went on to say: | NBVE 1 Eliú prosiguió: |
| BSB 2 “Do you think this is just? You say, ‘I am more righteous than God.’ | NBVE 2–3 «¿Crees que está bien que tú declares: “No he pecado, pero no por ello me va mejor delante de Dios?”. |
| BSB 3 For you ask, ‘What does it profit me, and what benefit do I gain apart from sin?’ | |
| BSB 4 I will reply to you and to your friends as well. | NBVE 4 Yo te responderé, y también a todos tus amigos. |
| BSB 5 Look to the heavens and see; gaze at the clouds high above you. | NBVE 5 Mira al cielo, muy por encima de ti. |
| BSB 6 If you sin, what do you accomplish against Him? If you multiply your transgressions, what do you do to Him? | NBVE 6 Si pecas, ¿conmoverás con ello el cielo y derribarás a Dios de su trono? Aunque peques una y otra vez, ¿en qué lo afectarás a él? |
| BSB 7 If you are righteous, what do you give Him, or what does He receive from your hand? | NBVE 7 O si te portas bien, ¿le estás haciendo un gran favor? |
| BSB 8 Your wickedness affects only a man like yourself, and your righteousness only a son of man. | NBVE 8 Tus pecados pueden dañar a otro hombre, o tus buenas acciones causarle provecho. |
| BSB 9 Men cry out under great oppression; they plead for relief from the arm of the mighty. | NBVE 9–10 »Los oprimidos pueden gritar bajo sus males y gemir bajo el poder de los ricos; pero ninguno clama a Dios preguntando: “¿Dónde está Dios mi hacedor; que da cánticos en la noche, |
| BSB 10 But no one asks, ‘Where is God my Maker, who gives us songs in the night, | |
| BSB 11 who teaches us more than the beasts of the earth and makes us wiser than the birds of the air?’ | NBVE 11 y nos hace un poco más sabios que los cuadrúpedos y las aves?”. |
| BSB 12 There they cry out, but He does not answer, because of the pride of evil men. | NBVE 12 Cuando alguno le lanza esta pregunta, nunca responde él castigando inmediatamente a los tiranos. |
| BSB 13 Surely God does not listen to empty pleas, and the Almighty does not take note of it. | NBVE 13 Pero es falso afirmar que no escucha esos clamores. |
| BSB 14 How much less, then, when you say that you do not see Him, that your case is before Him and you must wait for Him, | NBVE 14–15 Y más falso aún decir que no ve lo que sucede. Dios sí hace justicia finalmente, si esperamos. Pero, ¿protestas contra él porque no responde airadamente al instante? |
| BSB 15 and further, that in His anger He has not punished or taken much notice of folly! | |
| BSB 16 So Job opens his mouth in vain and multiplies words without knowledge.” | NBVE 16 Has hablado como un necio, Job». |
