But now they that are younger than I have me in derision, whose fathers I would have disdained to have set with the dogs of my flock.
Pero ahora se burlan de mí los que son más jóvenes que yo, aquellos cuyos padres yo no habría considerado dignos ni siquiera de trabajar junto a los perros que cuidan mis ovejas.
Job lamenta que ahora lo desprecian personas mucho menores que él y de familias que antes consideraba indignas.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the Book of Job, Job is in the midst of his severe trials, having lost his wealth, health, and social status due to unexplained suffering. He laments how younger people, whose fathers he viewed as unfit even for the most menial tasks like guarding his flocks, are now mocking him. This reflects the ancient Near Eastern culture where age and social standing commanded respect, making Job's reversal of fortune a profound humiliation.
