SEV Biblia, Chapter 19:21
Oh vosotros mis amigos, tened compasión de mí, tened compasión de mí; porque la mano de Dios me ha tocado.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Job 19:21
Verse 21. Have pity upon me ] The iteration here strongly indicates the depth of his distress, and that his spirit was worn down with the length and severity of his suffering.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 8-22 - How doleful are Job's complaints! What is the fire of hell but the wrath of God! Seared consciences will feel it hereafter, but do no fear it now: enlightened consciences fear it now, but shall not feel it hereafter. It is a very common mistake to think that those whom God afflicts he treats as his enemies. Every creature is that to us whic God makes it to be; yet this does not excuse Job's relations an friends. How uncertain is the friendship of men! but if God be ou Friend, he will not fail us in time of need. What little reason we have to indulge the body, which, after all our care, is consumed by disease it has in itself. Job recommends himself to the compassion of his friends, and justly blames their harshness. It is very distressing to one who loves God, to be bereaved at once of outward comfort and of inward consolation; yet if this, and more, come upon a believer, it does not weaken the proof of his being a child of God and heir of glory.
