Despair or melting away, the collapse of hope experienced by innocent sufferers
This term denotes despair in its rawest form—the melting away or dissolution of hope. Job 9:23 uses it to describe God's response to the despair of the innocent when calamity strikes suddenly. The image is of complete collapse, when strength and hope dissolve. Some interpreters have suggested 'trial' as an alternative, but the context of Job's complaint about divine indifference to suffering favors the sense of desperation and failing hope.

1. sense 1 — The despair or collapse of hope experienced by innocent sufferers, described through melting or failing imagery. Job 9:23 speaks of God mocking 'at the despair of innocent ones' when sudden disaster strikes. This captures Job's protest about divine indifference to the suffering of the righteous. The Spanish 'prueba' (trial/test) represents an alternative interpretation, though despair fits Job's complaint. 1×
