job 30:11 "Because He has loosed His bowstring and afflicted me, They have cast off the bridle before me.

11. He--that is, "God"; antithetical to "they"; English Version here follows the marginal reading (Keri).
my cord--image from a bow unstrung; opposed to Job 29:20. The text (Chetib), "His cord" or "reins" is better; "yea, each lets loose his reins" [UMBREIT].

job 30:11 "Because He has loosed His bowstring and afflicted me, They have cast off the bridle before me.
