Job 32:11-22
11Behold, I waitedH3176 for your wordsH1697; I gave earH238 to your reasonsH8394, whilst ye searched outH2713 what to sayH4405.12
12Yea, I attendedH995 unto you, and, behold, there was none of you that convincedH3198 JobH347, or that answeredH6030 his wordsH561:
13Lest ye should sayH559, We have found outH4672 wisdomH2451: GodH410 thrusteth him downH5086, not manH376.
14Now he hath not directedH6186 his wordsH4405 against me: neither will I answerH7725 him with your speechesH561.3
15They were amazedH2865, they answeredH6030 no more: they left offH6275 speakingH4405.4
16When I had waitedH3176, (for they spakeH1696 not, but stood stillH5975, and answeredH6030 no more;)
17I said, I will answerH6030 also my partH2506, I also will shewH2331 mine opinionH1843.
18For I am fullH4390 of matterH4405, the spiritH7307 withinH990 me constrainethH6693 me.56
19Behold, my bellyH990 is as wineH3196 which hath no ventH6605; it is ready to burstH1234 like newH2319 bottlesH178.7
20I will speakH1696, that I may be refreshedH7304: I will openH6605 my lipsH8193 and answerH6030.8
21Let me not, I pray you, acceptH5375 any man’sH376 personH6440, neither let me give flattering titlesH3655 unto manH120.
22For I knowH3045 not to give flattering titlesH3655; in so doing my makerH6213 would soonH4592 take me awayH5375.
