2 "Can a man be profitable to God, Though he who is wise may be profitable to himself?

3 Is it any pleasure to the Almighty that you are righteous? Or is it gain to Him that you make your ways blameless?

4 "Is it because of your fear of Him that He corrects you, And enters into judgment with you?

5 Is not your wickedness great, And your iniquity without end?

6 For you have taken pledges from your brother for no reason, And stripped the naked of their clothing.

7 You have not given the weary water to drink, And you have withheld bread from the hungry.

8 But the mighty man possessed the land, And the honorable man dwelt in it.

9 You have sent widows away empty, And the strength of the fatherless was crushed.

10 Therefore snares are all around you, And sudden fear troubles you,

11 Or darkness so that you cannot see; And an abundance of water covers you.

12 "Is not God in the height of heaven? And see the highest stars, how lofty they are!

Job 22:2 ¿Puede un hombre ser útil a Dios, o un sabio útil para sí mismo?

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

2 ¿Por ventura traerá el hombre provecho a Dios? Porque para sí mismo es provechoso el sabio

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

Job 22:2 «¿Puede una persona hacer algo para ayudar a Dios?
¿Puede aun el sabio ser de ayuda para él?

2 «¿Puede alguien, por muy sabio que sea,serle a Dios de algún provecho?

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

2 ¿Por ventura traerá el hombre provecho a Dios? Porque para sí mismo es provechoso el sabio.
