Job 32:16

King James Version with Apocrypha - American Edition

When I had waited, (for they spake not, but stood still, and answered no more,)

See the chapter Copy

Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:

Therefore the prudent shall keep silence in that time; for it is an evil time.

Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise: and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed a man of understanding.

Oh that ye would altogether hold your peace! And it should be your wisdom.

They were amazed, they answered no more: they left off speaking.

I said, I will answer also my part; I also will show mine opinion.
