He that is ready to slip with his feet is as a lamp despised in the thought of him that is at ease.
Aquel que está a punto de caer es como una lámpara despreciada por aquellos que viven cómodos y seguros.
Los que están en problemas son menospreciados por quienes se sienten seguros.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the Book of Job, Job is speaking in response to his friends who are accusing him of sin as the reason for his suffering, highlighting how the prosperous often mock or dismiss those in distress. He uses the image of a lamp being despised to illustrate that people at ease tend to undervalue those who are unstable or about to fall, reflecting the ancient Near Eastern belief that wealth and health were signs of divine approval. This verse fits into Job's broader defense of his integrity against his critics' self-righteous judgments.
