Job 3:21 in Context — Job 3
19 Allí están el chico y el grande; y el siervo libre de su señor.
20 ¿Por qué se da luz al trabajado, y vida á los de ánimo en amargura,
21 Que esperan la muerte, y ella no llega, aunque la buscan más que tesoros;
22 Que se alegran sobremanera, y se gozan, cuando hallan el sepulcro?
23 ¿[Por qué] al hombre que no sabe por donde vaya, y al cual Dios ha encerrado?
