My bowels boiled, and rested not: the days of affliction prevented me.

Verse 27 is found in chapter 30 of Job. Job returns to physical pain and states that his body and life are wasting away. He describes God as the one to whom he cries without receiving an answer, using images of wind and destruction. The lament preserves the book’s fundamental tension: Job continues speaking to God even though he feels that God remains silent before his request.

Meine Eingeweide sieden und hören nicht auf; mich hat überfallen die elende Zeit.
Mis entrañas hierven, y no reposan; Días de aflicción me han sobrecogido.
Mis entrañas hierven sin descanso; los días de aflicción me salen al encuentro.
Mes entrailles bouillonnent sans relâche, Les jours de la calamité m'ont surpris.
Le mie interiora bollono, e non hanno alcuna posa; I giorni dell’afflizione mi hanno incontrato.
As minhas entranhas fervem e não estão quietas; os dias da aflição me surpreendem.
我內心煩擾不安, 困苦的日子臨到我身。
