Because he hath loosed my cord, and afflicted me, they have also let loose the bridle before me.

Verse 11 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 ihr Seil gelöst und mich zunichte gemacht und ihren Zaum vor mir abgetan.
Porque Dios desató mi cuerda, y me afligió, Por eso se desenfrenaron delante de mi rostro.
Porque Dios ha soltado la cuerda de mi arco y me ha humillado, ellos se han quitado el freno en mi presencia.
Ils n'ont plus de retenue et ils m'humilient, Ils rejettent tout frein devant moi.
Perciocchè Iddio ha sciolto il mio legame, e mi ha afflitto; Laonde essi hanno scosso il freno, per non riverir più la mia faccia.
Porque Deus desatou a sua corda, e me oprimiu, por isso sacudiram de si o freio perante o meu rosto.
上帝鬆開我的弓弦 使我受苦, 他們就在我面前脫去轡頭。
