- I waited while you spoke, I listened to your reasoning; while you were searching for words,
- I gave you my full attention. But not one of you has proved Job wrong; none of you has answered his arguments.
- Do not say, 'We have found wisdom; let God refute him, not man.'
- But Job has not marshaled his words against me, and I will not answer him with your arguments.
- "They are dismayed and have no more to say; words have failed them.
|
- Behold, I waited for your words; I gave ear to your reasons, whilst ye searched out what to say.
- Yea, I attended unto you, and, behold, there was none of you that convinced Job, or that answered his words:
- Lest ye should say, We have found out wisdom: God thrusteth him down, not man.
- Now he hath not directed his words against me: neither will I answer him with your speeches.
- They were amazed, they answered no more: they left off speaking.
