Job 35:16

16 pero tú, Job, abres la boca y dices tonterías;hablas mucho y no sabes lo que dices».

Job 35:16 Meaning and Commentary

Job 35:16

Therefore doth Job open his mouth in vain
In uttering such unbecoming expressions, observed, and refuted, in his loud complaints of God, and of his dealings with him, and in defence of himself;

he multiplieth words without knowledge;
both against God and in answer to others; being in a great measure ignorant of the nature and number of his sins, and of his afflictions; and of the end of God in them, and of the right he had to lay them upon him; us well as of his duty patiently to bear them, and trust in God, and wait his own time for deliverance out of them; and or the truth of this he was afterwards convinced, and acknowledged it, ( Job 42:3 ) .

Job 35:16 In-Context

14 Aun cuando digas que no puedes verlo,tu caso está delante de él, y debes aguardarlo.
15 Tú dices que Dios no se enoja ni castiga,y que no se da cuenta de tanta maldad;
16 pero tú, Job, abres la boca y dices tonterías;hablas mucho y no sabes lo que dices».
