Job 18:2

Until when will you set a snare for words? Understand, and afterwards we will speak.

Let darkness and the shadow of death claim it. Let a cloud dwell upon it; Let the blackness of the day terrify it.

There the wicked cease from troubling, and there the weary are at rest;

How long will you speak these things, since the words of your mouth are like a strong wind?

Should not the multitude of words be answered? And should a man full of talk be justified?

Oh that you would stop speaking entirely! And it would be your wisdom.

I have heard many such things. You are all miserable comforters.

Listen carefully to my speech, and let this be your comfort.

However, Job, please hear my speeches, and listen to all my words.

If one answers a matter before he hears, it is folly and shame to him.

Therefore, my beloved brothers, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath.

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

Let darkness and the shadow of death claim it. Let a cloud dwell upon it; Let the blackness of the day terrify it.

Listen carefully to my speech, and let this be your comfort.

However, Job, please hear my speeches, and listen to all my words.

If one answers a matter before he hears, it is folly and shame to him.

Therefore, my beloved brothers, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath.

Hear this, Job, listen to me; be silent and I will speak.
