'Words' in the Bible

Your words have raised up [the one who] stumbles, and you have strengthened knees giving way.

for then it would be heavier than the sand of the seas; therefore my words have been rash,

But it will still be my consolation, and I would recoil in {unrelenting} pain, for I have not denied [the] words of [the] Holy One.

How painful are {upright words}! But what does {your reproof} reprove?

Do you intend to reprove [my] words and [consider the] words of a desperate [man] as wind?

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

Will they themselves not teach you [and] {tell you} and {utter} words from their heart?

{How much less} can I myself answer him? [How] can I choose my words with him,

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

Does not [the] ear test words and [the] palate taste food for itself?

"Listen carefully [to] my words, and [let] my exposition [be] in your ears.

Should he argue in talk [that] is not profitable or [in] words with which he cannot do good?

that you turn your spirit against God, and you let [such] words go out of your mouth?

[Is there] a limit to windy words? What provokes you that you answer?

I myself also could talk as you, if {you were in my place}; I could join against you with words, and I could shake at you with my head.

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

"{How long} will you torment me and crush me with words?

"{O that} my words could be written down! {O that they could be inscribed in a scroll}!

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

Please receive instruction from his mouth, and place his words in your heart.

I want to know [the] words [with which] he would answer me, and I want to understand what he would say to me.

[From] the commandment of his lips, indeed I have not departed; I have treasured the words of his mouth more than my daily food.

{With whose help} have you uttered words, and whose breath has come forth from you?

let thorns grow in place of wheat and noxious weeds in place of barley." The words of Job are ended.

"Look, I waited for your words; I listened for your insight, until you searched out {what to say}.

And I directed my attention to you; and, look, there is no [one] for Job [who] refuted, answering his words among you.

But he did not direct [his] words to me, and I will not answer him with your words.

for I am full of words; {the spirit within me} urges me.

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

My words [declare] my heart's uprightness, and my lips sincerely speak {what my lips know}.

"Surely you have spoken in my ears, and I have heard [the] sound of [your] words:

Why do you contend against him, that he will not answer all a person's words?

"Hear my words, you wise men, and listen to me, you who know,

for [the] ear tests words, and [the] palate tastes {food}.

'Job speaks without knowledge, and his words [are] without insight.

for he adds transgression to his sin; he claps hands among us, and he multiplies his words against God.'"

{therefore} Job opens his mouth in empty talk-- without knowledge he multiplies words."

for truly my words [are] not falsehood; [one who has] perfect knowledge [is] with you.

"Who [is] this darkening counsel by words without knowledge?

Will it make numerous pleas for mercy to you? Or will it speak gentle words to you?

{And then} after Yahweh spoke these words to Job, Yahweh said to Eliphaz the Temanite, "{My wrath has been kindled} against you and against [the] two of your friends, for you have not spoken to me what is right as my servant Job [has].
