Job 18:19

19 No tendrán hijos ni nietos,
ni habrá sobrevivientes donde habitaban.

Job 18:19 Meaning and Commentary

Job 18:19

He shall neither have son nor nephew among his people
Neither son, nor son's son, or grandson; so the Targum, Jarchi, and Bar Tzemach; that is, he shall be childless, and have no heirs, successors, or survivors, to inherit his estate, bear and perpetuate his name among the people of his country, city, or neighbourhood. Bildad respects no doubt the present case of Job, who had lost all his children; but he was mistaken if he thought he should die so, for he had after this as many children as he had before:

nor any remaining in his dwellings;
being all dead, or fled from them, through the terror, desolation, and destruction in them. Aben Ezra and Bar Tzemach interpret them places in which he was a sojourner or stranger; and Mr. Broughton, nor remnant in his pilgrimage.

Job 18:19 In-Context

17 Desaparecerá de la tierra todo recuerdo de su existencia;
nadie se acordará de sus nombres.

18 Serán sacados de la luz, arrojados a las tinieblas
y expulsados del mundo.

19 No tendrán hijos ni nietos,
ni habrá sobrevivientes donde habitaban.

20 La gente del occidente se queda consternada por su destino,
y la gente del oriente está horrorizada.

21 Dirán: “Este fue el hogar de una persona malvada,
el lugar de alguien que rechazó a Dios”».
