SEV Biblia, Chapter 14:19
las piedras son quebrantadas con el agua impetuosa, que se lleva el polvo de la tierra, de tal manera haces perder al hombre la esperanza.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Job 14:19
Verse 19. The waters wear the stones ] Even the common stones are affected in the same way. Were even earthquakes and violent concussions of nature wanting, the action of water, either running over them as a stream, or even falling upon them in drops, will wear these stones. Hence the proverb: - Gutta cavat lapidem non vi sed saepe cadendo. "Constant droppings will make a hole in a flint." ek qaminhv raqamiggov, okwv logov, aiev ioisav, cÆ a liqov ev rwcmon koilainetai.
"From frequent dropping, as the proverb says, perpetually falling, even a stone is hollowed into a hole." Thou washest away the things ] Alluding to sudden falls of rain occasioning floods, by which the fruits of the earth are swept away; and thus the hope of man-the grain for his household, and provender for his cattle, is destroyed.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 16-22 - Job's faith and hope spake, and grace appeared to revive; but depravit again prevailed. He represents God as carrying matters to extremit against him. The Lord must prevail against all who contend with him God may send disease and pain, we may lose all comfort in those nea and dear to us, every hope of earthly happiness may be destroyed, but God will receive the believer into realms of eternal happiness. But what a change awaits the prosperous unbeliever! How will he answer when God shall call him to his tribunal? The Lord is yet upon a mercy-seat ready to be gracious. Oh that sinners would be wise, that they woul consider their latter end! While man's flesh is upon him, that is, the body he is so loth to lay down, it shall have pain; and while his sou is within him, that is, the spirit he is so loth to resign, it shal mourn. Dying work is hard work; dying pangs often are sore pangs. It is folly for men to defer repentance to a death-bed, and to have that to do which is the one thing needful, when unfit to do anything __________________________________________________________________
