"Mark me, and be astonished, And lay your hand upon your mouth. "
— Job 21:5, American Standard Version
“Mark me, and be astonished, and lay your hand upon your mouth.”
“Look at me, and be astonished. Lay your hand on your mouth.”
“Look at me and be appalled; put your hands over your mouths.”
“Hearken to me and be astonished, and lay your finger on your mouth.”
“Take note of me and be full of wonder, put your hand on your mouth.”
“Mark me, and be astonished, and lay your hand upon your mouth.”
Hear diligently my speech; And let this be your consolations.
Suffer me, and I also will speak; And after that I have spoken, mock on.
As for me, is my complaint to man? And why should I not be impatient?
Mark me, and be astonished, And lay your hand upon your mouth.
Even when I remember I am troubled, And horror taketh hold on my flesh.
Wherefore do the wicked live, Become old, yea, wax mighty in power?
Their seed is established with them in their sight, And their offspring before their eyes.
