Job 29:9-11

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:

Job 29:21

Unto me [men] gave ear
<08085> (8804)_,

and waited
<03176> (8765)_,

and kept silence
<01826> (8799)

at
<03926>

my counsel
<06098>_.
