Job 32:16

New Century Version

Now they are standing there with no answers for Job. Now that they are quiet, must I wait to speak?

See the chapter Copy

I wish you would just stop talking; then you would really be wise!

“These three friends are defeated and have no more to say; words have failed them.

No, I too will speak and tell what I know.

Even fools seem to be wise if they keep quiet; if they don’t speak, they appear to understand.

In such times the wise person will keep quiet, because it is a bad time.

My dear brothers and sisters, always be willing to listen and slow to speak. Do not become angry easily,
