SEV Biblia, Chapter 21:13

Gastan sus días en bien, y en un momento descienden a la sepultura.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Job 21:13

Verse 13. They spend their days in
wealth ] There is a various reading here of some importance. In the text we have wlby yeballu, they grow old, or wear out as with old age, terent vetustate; and in the margin, wlky yechallu, they consume; and the Masora states that this is one of the eleven words which are written with b beth and must be read with k caph.

Several editions have the former word in the text, and the latter in the margin; the former being what is called the kethib, the latter keri. wlby yeballu, they grow old, or wear out, is the reading of the Antwerp, Paris, and London Polyglots; wlky yechallu, they accomplish or spend, is the reading of the Complutensian Polyglot, thirteen of Kennicott's and Deuteronomy Rossi's MSS., the Septuagint, Chaldee, Syriac, and Arabic.

The Vulgate has ducunt, "they lead or spend," from which our translation is borrowed. I incline to the former, as Job's argument derives considerable strength from this circumstance; they not only spend their days in faring sumptuously every day; but they even wear out so as to grow old in it; they are not cut off by any sudden judgment of God. This is fact; therefore your doctrine, that the wicked are cut off suddenly and have but a short time, is far from the truth.

In a moment go down to the grave. ] They wear out their years in pleasure; grow old in their gay and giddy life; and die, as in a moment, without previous sickness; or, as Mr. Good has it, They quietly descend into the grave.


Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 7-16 - Job says, Remarkable judgments are sometimes brought upon notoriou sinners, but not always. Wherefore is it so? This is the day of God' patience; and, in some way or other, he makes use of the prosperity of the wicked to serve his own counsels, while it ripens them for ruin but the chief reason is, because he will make it appear there is another world. These prospering sinners make light of God and religion as if because they have so much of this world, they had no need to loo after another. But religion is not a vain thing. If it be so to us, we may thank ourselves for resting on the outside of it. Job shows their folly.
