Job 32:20

Douay-Rheims version of The Bible - 1752 version

I will speak and take breath a little: I will open my lips, and will answer.

See the chapter Copy

Suffer me, and I will speak: and after, if you please, laugh at my words.

Therefore various thoughts succeed one another in me, and my mind is hurried away to different things.

Who is he that will plead against me? Let him come. Why am I consumed holding my peace?

Hold your peace a little while, that I may speak whatsoever my mind shall suggest to me.

Behold, my belly is as new wine which wanteth vent, which bursteth the new vessels.

I will not accept the person of man: and I will not level God with man.

If we begin to speak to thee, perhaps thou wilt take it ill: but who can withhold the words he hath conceived?
