"Should people remain silent at your idle talk, and should no one rebuke you when you mock?"
— Job 11:3, NET Bible
“Should thy lies make men hold their peace? and when thou mockest, shall no man make thee ashamed?”
“Should thy boastings make men hold their peace? And when thou mockest, shall no man make thee ashamed? ”
“Should your boastings make men hold their peace? When you mock, shall no man make you ashamed?”
“Shall men hold their peace to thee only? and when thou hast mocked others, shall no man confute thee?”
“Are your words of pride to make men keep quiet? and are you to make sport, with no one to put you to shame?”
“Should thy lies make men hold their peace? and when thou mockest, shall no man make thee ashamed?”
Zophar’s First Speech to Job Then Zophar the Naamathite spoke up and said:
“Should not this abundance of words be answered, or should this talkative man be vindicated?
Should people remain silent at your idle talk, and should no one rebuke you when you mock?
For you have said,‘My teaching is flawless, and I am pure in your sight.’
But if only God would speak, if only he would open his lips against you,
and reveal to you the secrets of wisdom– for true wisdom has two sides– so that you would know that God has forgiven some of your sins.
