"To my words, they dared to add nothing, and my eloquence poured over them. "
— Job 29:22, Catholic Public Domain Version
“After my words they spake not again; and my speech dropped upon them.”
“After my words they spake not again; And my speech distilled upon them. ”
“After my words they didn't speak again. My speech fell on them.”
“After I had spoken, they did not respond; my words fell on them drop by drop.”
“To my words they durst add nothing, and my speech dropped upon them.”
“After I had said what was in my mind, they were quiet and let my words go deep into their hearts;”
“After my words they spake not again; and my speech dropped upon them.”
My root has been spread beside the waters, and the dew will remain with my harvest.
My glory will always be restored, and my bow will be restored to my hand.”
Those who heard me, expected vindication, and they listened closely in silence to my counsel.
To my words, they dared to add nothing, and my eloquence poured over them.
They waited for me as for rain, and they opened their mouth as for belated rains.
If I had ever laughed at them, they would not have believed it, and the light of my face was not cast down towards the ground.
If I wished to go to them, I sat down first, and, though I sat like a king surrounded by an army, yet I was a comforter to those who mourned.
