'Silent' in the Bible

and say to them, 'We have acquired our brethren the Jews, those sold to the nations, according to the ability that is in us, and ye also sell your brethren, and they have been sold to us!' and they are silent, and have not found a word.

And the Levites are keeping all the people silent, saying, 'Be silent, for to-day is holy, and be not grieved.'
