They are as stubble before the wind, and as chaff that the storm carrieth away.
Son como rastrojo seco que se lleva el viento, y como paja que arrastra la tormenta.
Los malvados son llevados por el viento como paja seca e indefensa.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the Book of Job, which is set in the ancient Near East during the patriarchal era, Job is responding to his friends who argue that suffering comes from personal sin, while he questions why the wicked often seem to prosper. He uses the metaphor of stubble and chaff, light, worthless remnants from grain harvesting, to describe how the wicked will ultimately be swept away, drawing from the everyday agricultural life of that culture. This imagery highlights the transient nature of evil in the face of God's justice, as farming was a central part of ancient society.
