Job 18:2

"{How long} {will you hunt for words}? Consider, and afterward we shall speak.

Let darkness and deep shadow claim it; let clouds settle on it; let them terrify it [with the] blackness of day.

There [the] wicked cease from troubling, and there [the] {weary} are at rest;

"{How long} will you say these [things], and the words of your mouth [be] a mighty wind?

"Should an abundance of words go unanswered, or {a man full of talk} be vindicated?

{O that} you would keep completely silent, and [that] it would become wisdom for you.

"I have heard many [things] like these; all of you [are] {miserable comforters}.

"Listen carefully to my words, and let this be your consolation.

"But now, please hear my speeches, Job, and hear all my words.

He who returns a word before he will hear, folly itself [belongs] to him as well as shame.

Understand [this], my dear brothers: every person must be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger,

How long will it be ere ye make an end of words? mark, and afterwards we will speak.

Let darkness and deep shadow claim it; let clouds settle on it; let them terrify it [with the] blackness of day.

"Listen carefully to my words, and let this be your consolation.

"But now, please hear my speeches, Job, and hear all my words.

He who returns a word before he will hear, folly itself [belongs] to him as well as shame.

Understand [this], my dear brothers: every person must be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger,

"Listen attentively, Job; listen to me; be silent, and I will speak.
