King James Version
"I have heard the check of my reproach, and the spirit of my understanding causeth me to answer."
— Job 20:3, King James Version
“I have heard the reproof which putteth me to shame; And the spirit of my understanding answereth me. ”
“I have heard the reproof which puts me to shame. The spirit of my understanding answers me.”
“When I hear a reproof that dishonors me, then my understanding prompts me to answer.”
“The doctrine with which thou reprovest me, I will hear, and the spirit of my understanding shall answer for me.”
“I have to give ear to arguments which put me to shame, and your answers to me are wind without wisdom.”
“I have heard the check of my reproach, and the spirit of my understanding causeth me to answer.”
Then answered Zophar the Naamathite, and said,
Therefore do my thoughts cause me to answer, and for this I make haste.
I have heard the check of my reproach, and the spirit of my understanding causeth me to answer.
Knowest thou not this of old, since man was placed upon earth,
That the triumphing of the wicked is short, and the joy of the hypocrite but for a moment?
Though his excellency mount up to the heavens, and his head reach unto the clouds;
