King James Version with Apocrypha
"Unto me men gave ear, and waited, and kept silence at my counsel."
— Job 29:21, King James Version with Apocrypha
“Unto me men gave ear, and waited, and kept silence at my counsel.”
“Unto me men gave ear, and waited, And kept silence for my counsel. ”
“"Men listened to me, waited, and kept silence for my counsel.”
“Job’s Reputation“People listened to me and waited silently; they kept silent for my advice.”
“They that heard me, waited for my sentence, and being attentive held their peace at my counsel.”
“Men gave ear to me, waiting and keeping quiet for my suggestions.”
Then I said, I shall die in my nest, and I shall multiply my days as the sand.
My root was spread out by the waters, and the dew lay all night upon my branch.
My glory was fresh in me, and my bow was renewed in my hand.
Unto me men gave ear, and waited, and kept silence at my counsel.
After my words they spake not again; and my speech dropped upon them.
And they waited for me as for the rain; and they opened their mouth wide as for the latter rain.
If I laughed on them, they believed it not; and the light of my countenance they cast not down.
