Job 38:15

15 Mas se quita la luz a los impíos, y se quiebra el brazo levantado.

Job 38:15 Meaning and Commentary

Job 38:15

And from the wicked their light is withholden
Whose light is darkness, and whose day is the night, of which they are deprived when the morning light breaks forth; see ( Job 24:17 ) ; it may be figuratively understood of the light of prosperity being removed from them, or the light of life, when they shall be sent into utter darkness;

and the high arm shall be broken;
their power weakened and made useless; even the power of such wicked men who have had a large share of it, and have used it in a tyrannical manner; and especially this will be their case at death; see ( Isaiah 14:10 Isaiah 14:12 ) .

Job 38:15 In-Context

13 para que ella eche mano a los confines de la tierra, y de ella sean sacudidos los impíos?
14 Ella cambia como barro bajo el sello; y como con vestidura se presenta.
15 Mas se quita la luz a los impíos, y se quiebra el brazo levantado.
16 ¿Has entrado hasta las fuentes del mar, o andado en las profundidades del abismo?
17 ¿Te han sido reveladas las puertas de la muerte, o has visto las puertas de la densa oscuridad?
