King James Version
"Behold, I am vile; what shall I answer thee? I will lay mine hand upon my mouth."
— Job 40:4, King James Version
“ Behold, I am of small account; what shall I answer thee? I lay my hand upon my mouth. ”
“"Behold, I am of small account. What shall I answer you? I lay my hand on my mouth.”
““Indeed, I am completely unworthy– how could I reply to you? I put my hand over my mouth to silence myself.”
“And hast thou an arm like God, and canst thou thunder with a voice like him?”
“Truly, I am of no value; what answer may I give to you? I will put my hand on my mouth.”
“Behold, I am vile; what shall I answer thee? I will lay mine hand upon my mouth.”
Moreover the Lord answered Job, and said,
Shall he that contendeth with the Almighty instruct him? he that reproveth God, let him answer it.
Then Job answered the Lord, and said,
Behold, I am vile; what shall I answer thee? I will lay mine hand upon my mouth.
Once have I spoken; but I will not answer: yea, twice; but I will proceed no further.
Then answered the Lord unto Job out of the whirlwind, and said,
Gird up thy loins now like a man: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me.
