Job 29:7-11

When I went out
<03318> (8800)

to the gate
<08179>

through the city
<07176>_,

[when] I prepared
<03559> (8686)

my seat
<04186>

in the street
<07339>_!

The young men
<05288>

saw
<07200> (8804)

me, and hid
<02244> (8738)

themselves: and the aged
<03453>

arose
<06965> (8804)_,

[and] stood up
<05975> (8804)_.

The princes
<08269>

refrained
<06113> (8804)

talking
<04405>_,

and laid
<07760> (8799)

[their] hand
<03709>

on their mouth
<06310>_.

The nobles
<05057>

held
<02244> (8738)

their peace
<06963>_,

and their tongue
<03956>

cleaved
<01692> (8804)

to the roof of their mouth
<02441>_.

{The nobles...: Heb. The voice of the nobles was hid}

When the ear
<0241>

heard
<08085> (8804)

[me], then it blessed
<0833> (8762)

me; and when the eye
<05869>

saw
<07200> (8804)

[me], it gave witness
<05749> (8686)

to me:
