Job 16:2-5

2“I have heard many such things; 1 2Sorry comforters are you all.3Is there no limit to 3windy words? Or what plagues you that you answer?4I too could speak like you, If 4I were in your place. I could compose words against you And 5shake my head at you.5I could strengthen you with my mouth, And the solace of my lips could lessen your pain.
