Job 30:5

5 Son expulsados de la sociedad,
y la gente les grita como si fueran ladrones.

Job 30:5 Meaning and Commentary

Job 30:5

They were driven from among [men]
From towns and cities, and all civil society, as unfit to be among them; not for any good, it may be observed, but for crimes that they had done, like our felons, and transported persons:

they cried after them as [after] a thief;
as they were driven and run along, the people called after them, saying, there goes a thief; which they said by way of abhorrence of them, and for the shame of them, and that all might be warned and cautioned against them; and, generally speaking, such as are idle and slothful, and thereby become miserable, are pilferers and thieves.

Job 30:5 In-Context

3 Están flacos por el hambre
y huyen a los desiertos,
a tierras baldías, desoladas y tenebrosas.

4 Arrancan verduras silvestres de entre los arbustos
y comen de las raíces de los árboles de retama.

5 Son expulsados de la sociedad,
y la gente les grita como si fueran ladrones.

6 Así que ahora viven en barrancos aterradores,
en cuevas y entre las rocas.

7 Suenan como animales aullando entre los arbustos,
apiñados debajo de las ortigas.
