Job 30:6

6 in desertis habitabant torrentium et in cavernis terrae vel super glaream

Job 30:6 Meaning and Commentary

Job 30:6

To dwell in the cliffs of the valleys
Or "brooks" F12, in such hollow places as were made by floods and streams of waters:

[in] caves of the earth, and [in] the rocks;
where they betook themselves for fear of men, and through shame, being naked and miserable not fit to be seen: Job has respect to the Horites and Troglodytes, his neighbours, who dwelt in such places chiefly.

Job 30:6 In-Context

4 et mandebant herbas et arborum cortices et radix iuniperorum erat cibus eorum
5 qui de convallibus ista rapientes cum singula repperissent ad ea cum clamore currebant
6 in desertis habitabant torrentium et in cavernis terrae vel super glaream
7 qui inter huiuscemodi laetabantur et esse sub sentibus delicias conputabant
8 filii stultorum et ignobilium et in terra penitus non parentes
