Job 33:2

A Conservative Version

Behold now, I have opened my mouth. My tongue has spoken in my mouth.

See the chapter Copy

After this Job opened his mouth, and cursed his day.

And having opened his mouth, he taught them, saying,

I will open my mouth in parables (LXX/NT). I will utter dark sayings of old,

(yea, I have not allowed my mouth to sin by asking his life with a curse);

However, Job, I pray thee, hear my speech, and hearken to all my words.

My words [shall utter] the uprightness of my heart, and that which my lips know they shall speak sincerely.
