Job 29:8-25 - NKJV - The young men saw me and hid, And the aged aros...

8 The young men saw me and hid, And the aged arose and stood;

9 The princes refrained from talking, And put their hand on their mouth;

10 The voice of nobles was hushed, And their tongue stuck to the roof of their mouth.

11 When the ear heard, then it blessed me, And when the eye saw, then it approved me;

12 Because I delivered the poor who cried out, The fatherless and the one who had no helper.

13 The blessing of a perishing man came upon me, And I caused the widow's heart to sing for joy.

14 I put on righteousness, and it clothed me; My justice was like a robe and a turban.

15 I was eyes to the blind, And I was feet to the lame.

16 I was a father to the poor, And I searched out the case that I did not know.

17 I broke the fangs of the wicked, And plucked the victim from his teeth.

18 "Then I said, 'I shall die in my nest, And multiply my days as the sand.

19 My root is spread out to the waters, And the dew lies all night on my branch.

20 My glory is fresh within me, And my bow is renewed in my hand.'

21 "Men listened to me and waited, And kept silence for my counsel.

22 After my words they did not speak again, And my speech settled on them as dew.

23 They waited for me as for the rain, And they opened their mouth wide as for the spring rain.

24 If I mocked at them, they did not believe it, And the light of my countenance they did not cast down.

25 I chose the way for them, and sat as chief; So I dwelt as a king in the army, As one who comforts mourners.

Job 29:8 me veían los jóvenes y se escondían, y los ancianos se levantaban y permanecían en pie.

8 the young men saw me and withdrew, and the aged rose and stood;

8 Los jóvenes me veían, y se escondían; y los viejos se levantaban, y estaban en pie

8 The young men saw me, and hid themselves: and the aged arose, and stood up.

Job 29:8 Los jóvenes me daban paso cuando me veían,
e incluso los ancianos se ponían de pie en señal de respeto cuando yo llegaba.

8 los jóvenes al verme se hacían a un lado,y los ancianos se ponían de pie;

8 Los mozos me veían, y se escondían; Y los viejos se levantaban, y estaban en pie;

8 Los jóvenes me veían, y se escondían; y los viejos se levantaban, y estaban en pie.
