Job 32:16

And I have waited. But because they do not speak, because they stand there and answer no more,

If only you would keep completely silent! For you, that would be wisdom.

Even a fool who remains silent is considered wise, and the one who holds his tongue is deemed discerning.

For this reason whoever is smart keeps quiet in such a time, for it is an evil time.

Understand this, my dear brothers and sisters! Let every person be quick to listen, slow to speak, slow to anger.

When I had waited, (for they spake not, but stood still, and answered no more;)

If only you would keep completely silent! For you, that would be wisdom.

Even a fool who remains silent is considered wise, and the one who holds his tongue is deemed discerning.

For this reason whoever is smart keeps quiet in such a time, for it is an evil time.

Understand this, my dear brothers and sisters! Let every person be quick to listen, slow to speak, slow to anger.
