Job 29

die vor Hunger und Kummer einsam flohen in die Einöde, neulich verdorben und elend worden,

Calificaba yo el camino de ellos, y sentábame en cabecera; y moraba como rey en el ejército, como el que consuela llorosos.

I chose out their way, and sat chief, and dwelt as a king in the army, as one that comforteth the mourners.

I chose out their way, and sat as chief. I lived as a king in the army, as one who comforts the mourners.
