Job 2:11-13

11 Los tres amigos de Job comparten su angustia
Cuando tres de los amigos de Job se enteraron de la tragedia que había sufrido, viajaron juntos desde sus respectivos hogares para consolarlo y confortarlo. Sus nombres eran Elifaz, el temanita; Bildad, el suhita y Zofar, el naamatita.

12 Cuando vieron a Job de lejos, apenas lo reconocieron. Con fuertes lamentos, rasgaron sus vestidos y echaron polvo al aire sobre sus cabezas en señal de dolor.

13 Entonces, durante siete días y siete noches, se sentaron en el suelo junto a Job, y ninguno le decía nada porque veían que su sufrimiento era demasiado grande para expresarlo con palabras.

Job 2:11-13 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO JOB 2

This chapter gives an account of a second trial of Job's constancy and integrity, the time and occasion of it, Job 2:1-3; the motion made for it by Satan, which being granted, he smote him from head to foot with sore boils, which he endured very patiently, Job 2:4-8; during which sad affliction he is urged by his wife to give up his integrity, which he bravely resisted, Job 2:9,10; and the chapter is concluded with an account of a visit of three of Job's friends, and of their conduct and behaviour towards him, Job 2:11-13.
