Job 29:21-25

21Unto me men gave earH8085, and waitedH3176, and kept silenceH1826 atH3926 my counselH6098.

22AfterH310 my wordsH1697 they spake not againH8138; and my speechH4405 droppedH5197 upon them.

23And they waitedH3176 for me as for the rainH4306; and they openedH6473 their mouthH6310 wide as for the latter rainH4456.

24If I laughedH7832 on them, they believedH539 it not; and the lightH216 of my countenanceH6440 they cast not downH5307.

25I choseH977 out their wayH1870, and satH3427 chiefH7218, and dweltH7931 as a kingH4428 among his troopsH1416, as one that comfortethH5162 the mournersH57.
