They abhor me, they flee far from me, and spare not to spit in my face.

Verse 10 is found in chapter 30 of Job. Job contrasts his former authority with his present humiliation before men whom he would once have considered inferior. He describes mockery, contempt, and loss of dignity. The social reversal intensifies his suffering: the one who once protected others now becomes an object of ridicule. The book thus shows that suffering affects identity, relationships, and social recognition.

Sie haben einen Greuel an mir und machen sich ferne von mir und scheuen sich nicht, vor meinem Angesicht zu speien.
Abomínanme, aléjanse de mí, Y aun de mi rostro no detuvieron su saliva.
Me aborrecen y se alejan de mí; no se abstienen de escupirme a la cara.
Ils ont horreur de moi, ils se détournent, Ils me crachent au visage.
Essi mi abbominano, si allontanano da me, E non si rattengono di sputarmi nel viso.
Abominam-me, e fogem para longe de mim, e no meu rosto não se privam de cuspir.
他們厭惡我,躲避我, 不住地吐唾沫在我臉上。
