'Speeches' in the Bible
“With him I speak mouth to mouth [directly],Clearly and openly and not in riddles;And he beholds the form of the Lord.Why then were you not afraid to speak against My servant Moses?”
“Do you intend to reprove my words [with a convincing argument],When the words of one in despair belong to the wind [and go ignored]?
“Should he rebuke and argue with useless talk?Or with words in which there is no benefit?
“Now Job has not directed his words against me [therefore I have no reason to be offended],Nor will I answer him with arguments like yours. [I speak for truth, not for revenge.]
Then you will know [without any doubt] that I am the Lord, and that I have heard all your scornful speeches which you have spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying, ‘They have been made a wasteland; they have been given to us as food.’
