Yo vivía en paz, pero él me quebrantó por completo. Me agarró del cuello y me despedazó, luego me puso como su blanco.

📚 Contexto Histórico
Job was a righteous and prosperous man living in the ancient land of Uz, who suddenly lost his wealth, family, and health as part of a divine test allowed by God to demonstrate Job's faithfulness. In Chapter 16, Job is in the midst of a heated dialogue with his friends who blame his suffering on hidden sins, and he expresses his deep anguish, feeling that God Himself has become his adversary. This verse reflects the cultural worldview of the ancient Near East, where people often saw personal calamities as direct interventions from the divine.
