ASV
Wherefore, when I came, was there no man? when I called, was there none to answer? Is my hand shortened at all, that it cannot redeem? or have I no power to deliver? Behold, at my rebuke I dry up the sea, I make the rivers a wilderness: their fish stink, because there is no water, and die for thirst.
BBE
Why, then, when I came, was there no man? and no one to give answer to my voice? has my hand become feeble, so that it is unable to take up your cause? or have I no power to make you free? See, at my word the sea becomes dry, I make the rivers a waste land: their fish are dead for need of water, and make an evil smell.
DARBY
Wherefore did I come, and there was no man? I called, and there was none to answer? Is my hand at all shortened that I cannot redeem, or have I no power to deliver? behold, at my rebuke I dry up the sea, I make rivers a wilderness; their fish stink because there is no water, and die for thirst.
DRB
Because I came, and there was not a man: I called, and there was none that would hear. Is my hand shortened and become little, that I cannot redeem? or is there no strength in me to deliver? Behold at my rebuke I will make the sea a desert, I will turn the rivers into dry land: the fishes shall rot for want of water, and shall die for thirst.
JPS
Wherefore, when I came, was there no man? When I called, was there none to answer? Is My hand shortened at all, that it cannot redeem? Or have I no power to deliver? Behold, at My rebuke I dry up the sea, I make the rivers a wilderness; Their fish become foul, because there is no water, And die for thirst.
KJV
Wherefore, when I came, was there no man? when I called, was there none to answer? Is my hand shortened at all, that it cannot redeem? or have I no power to deliver? behold, at my rebuke I dry up the sea, I make the rivers a wilderness: their fish stinketh, because there is no water, and dieth for thirst.
LXX Brenton
Why did I come, and there was no man? why did I call, and there was none to hearken? Is not my hand strong to redeem? or can I not deliver? behold, by my rebuke I will dry up the sea, and make rivers a wilderness; and their fish shall be dried up because there is no water, and shall die for thirst.

Why, when I came, was there no man? when I called, was there none to answer? Is my hand shortened at all, that it can't redeem? or have I no power to deliver? Behold, at my rebuke I dry up the sea, I make the rivers a wilderness: their fish stink, because there is no water, and die for thirst.
YLT
Wherefore have I come, and there is no one? I called, and there is none answering, Hath My hand been at all short of redemption? And is there not in me power to deliver? Lo, by My rebuke I dry up a sea, I make rivers a wilderness, Their fish stinketh, for there is no water, And dieth with thirst.
CRAMPON
Je suis venu: pourquoi n’y avait-il personne? J’ai appelé: pourquoi personne n’a-t-il répondu? Ma main est-elle donc trop courte pour délivrer, ou bien n’ai-je pas assez de force pour sauver? Voici que, par ma menace, je dessèche la mer, je change les fleuves en désert; leurs poissons pourrissent faute d’eau, et ils périssent de soif.
DARBY_FR
Pourquoi suis-je venu, et il n'y a eu personne? Pourquoi ai-je appelé, et il n'y a eu personne qui répondît? Ma main est-elle devenue trop courte pour que je puisse racheter, et n'y a-t-il pas de force en moi pour délivrer? Voici, par ma réprimande je dessèche la mer, je fais des rivières un désert; leurs poissons deviennent puants, faute d'eau, et meurent de soif.
LS1910
Je suis venu: pourquoi n'y avait-il personne? J'ai appelé: pourquoi personne n'a-t-il répondu? Ma main est-elle trop courte pour racheter? N'ai-je pas assez de force pour délivrer? Par ma menace, je dessèche la mer, Je réduis les fleuves en désert; Leurs poissons se corrompent, faute d'eau, Et ils périssent de soif.
LUT1545
Warum kam ich, und war niemand da; ich rief, und niemand antwortete? Ist meine Hand nun so kurz worden, daß sie nicht erlösen kann, oder ist bei mir keine Kraft zu erretten? Siehe, mit meinem Schelten mache ich das Meer trocken und mache die Wasserströme als eine Wüste, daß ihre Fische vor Wassermangel stinken und Durst sterben.
LUT1912
Warum kam ich, und war niemand da? ich rief, und niemand antwortete. Ist meine Hand nun so kurz geworden, daß ich sie nicht erlösen kann? oder ist bei mir keine Kraft, zu erretten? Siehe, mit meinem Schelten mache ich das Meer trocken und mache die Wasserströme zur Wüste, daß ihre Fische vor Wassermangel stinken und Durstes sterben.
Diodati1885
Perchè, essendo io venuto, non si è trovato alcuno? Ed avendo io chiamato, niuno ha risposto? È forse la mia mano per alcuna maniera accorciata, da non poter riscuotere? O non vi è egli in me forza alcuna, da poter liberare? Ecco, col mio sgridare io secco il mare, io riduco i fiumi in deserto, sì che il pesce loro diventa puzzolente, per mancamento di acqua, essendo morto di sete.
ALM1628
Por que razão vim eu, e ninguém apareceu? Chamei, e ninguém respondeu? Porventura tanto se encolheu a minha mão, que já não possa remir? Ou não há mais força em mim para livrar? Eis que com a minha repreensão faço secar o mar, torno os rios em deserto, até que cheirem mal os seus peixes, porquanto não têm água e morrem de sede.
ALM1753
Por que razão, quando eu vim, ninguém apareceu? quando chamei, não houve quem respondesse? Acaso tanto se encolheu a minha mão, que já não possa remir? ou não tenho poder para livrar? Eis que com a minha repreensão faço secar o mar, e torno os rios em deserto; cheiram mal os seus peixes, pois não há água, e morrem de sede:
BO1569
porque vine, y nadie apareció; llamé, y nadie respondió. ¿Ha llegado a acortarse mi mano, para no redimir? ¿No hay en mí poder para librar? He aquí que con mi reprensión hago secar el mar; torno los ríos en desierto; hasta pudrirse sus peces, y morirse de sed por falta de agua.
RV1909
Porque vine, y nadie pareció; llamé, y nadie respondió. ¿Ha llegado á acortarse mi mano, para no redimir? ¿no hay en mí poder para librar? He aquí que con mi reprensión hago secar la mar; torno los ríos en desierto, hasta pudrirse sus peces, y morirse de sed por falta de agua.
