Job 30:13

13 Mi senda derribaron, se aprovecharon de mi quebrantamiento, contra los cuales no hubo ayudador.

Job 30:13 Meaning and Commentary

Job 30:13

They mar my path
Hindered him in the exercise of religious duties; would not suffer him to attend the ways and worship of God, or to walk in the paths of holiness and righteousness; or they reproached his holy walk and conversation, and treated it with contempt, and triumphed over religion and godliness:

they set forward my calamity;
added affliction to affliction, increased his troubles by their reproaches and calumnies, and were pleased with it, as if it was profitable as well as pleasurable to them, see ( Zechariah 1:15 ) ;

they have no helper;
either no person of note to join them, and, to abet, assist, and encourage them; or they needed none, being forward enough of themselves to give him all the distress and disturbance they could, and he being so weak and unable to resist them; nor there is "no helper against them" ^F17; none to take Job's part against them, and deliver him out of their hands, see ( Ecclesiastes 4:1 ) .

Job 30:13 In-Context

11 Porque Dios desató mi cuerda, y me afligió, por eso se desenfrenaron delante de mi rostro.

12 A la mano derecha se levantaron los jóvenes; empujaron mis pies, y pisaron sobre mí las sendas de su contrición.

13 Mi senda derribaron, se aprovecharon de mi quebrantamiento, contra los cuales no hubo ayudador.

14 Vinieron como por portillo ancho, se revolvieron por mi calamidad.

15 Se han revuelto turbaciones sobre mí; combatieron como viento mi voluntad, y mi salud como nube que pasa.
