Job 30:27

27 Mi corazón está atribulado e inquieto;
me atormentan los días de sufrimiento.

Job 30:27 Meaning and Commentary

Job 30:27

My bowels boiled, and rested not
All contained within him, his heart, lungs, and liver, in a literal sense, through a violent fever burning within him; or figuratively, being under great distress and trouble, by reason of his afflictions, outward and inward, see ( Jeremiah 4:19 ) ( Lamentations 1:20 ) ;

the days of affliction prevented me;
came sooner upon him than he thought; he did not expect the evil days to come, and the years draw nigh in which he should have no pleasure, until he was more advanced in years, and the time of his dissolution was at hand; they came at once, and unawares, upon him, when he looked not for them: some render the word "met me" ^F15, unexpectedly; or rather, they "rushed upon me" ^F16, in an hostile way; came in troops, and invaded and surrounded him, see ( Job 19:12 ) .

Job 30:27 In-Context

25 ¿No lloraba yo por los que estaban en apuros?
¿No me lamentaba profundamente por los necesitados?

26 Entonces busqué el bien, pero en su lugar me vino el mal.
Esperaba la luz, pero cayó la oscuridad.

27 Mi corazón está atribulado e inquieto;
me atormentan los días de sufrimiento.

28 Camino en penumbra, sin la luz del sol.
Clamo por ayuda en la plaza pública;

29 pero me consideran hermano de los chacales
y compañero de los búhos.
