rehusar

Yo nunca he rehusado el llamado de una dama.	I never evaded a lady's call.
También he rehusado confirmar los métodos que otras personas han utilizado para llegar a una fecha específica basada en mi opinión.	I've also refused to confirm the methods other people have used to arrive at a specific date based on my opinion.
Varios de mis bienintencionados y acomodados amigos me han ofrecido grandes cantidades de dinero, el cual desde luego he rehusado.	Several of my well meaning, well-to-do friends have offered me large sums of money, which I of course refused.
Pero yo siempre me he rehusado a hacerlo.	But I have always been reluctant to do so.
En mis treinta y cinco años de sacerdocio, jamás he rehusado absolución.	In my thirty-five years as a priest, I have never refused absolution.
La he rehusado porque Alexandra me estaba esperando, pero he conversado un rato con ellos.	I have refused it because Alexandra was waiting for me, but I have conversed a while with them.
Y yo he rehusado ponerme la ceniza porque yo igualo eso con personas incredulas que lo hacen como un show.	And I have refused to take the Ashes because I equate this with non believers that do it for show.
Cuando se me han ofrecido medios, los he rehusado, o los he dedicado a instituciones de caridad como la Asociación Publicadora.	When means has been pressed upon me, I have refused it, or appropriated it to such charitable objects as the Publishing Association.
En cada caso, la única razón por la que puedo ayudarlas es porque yo he tenido las mismas preguntas –o sea, dudas– que ellas, y me he rehusado a transmitirles respuestas que no funcionaron para mí.	In every case, the only reason I'm able to help them is because I've had the same questions–doubts, in other words–that they have had, and I have refused to pass on answers that didn't work for me.
Aunque me has dado a conocer los secretos de sus corazones, y me has puesto por encima de ellos, he rehusado dejar al descubierto sus acciones, y he procedido pacientemente con ellos, atento al tiempo que Tú has señalado.	Though Thou hast made known unto me the secrets of their hearts, and hast set me above them, I have refused to uncover their deeds, and have dealt patiently with them, mindful of the time which Thou hast fixed.
