Berean Standard Bible
Job 16:4
“I could also speak like you if you were in my place; I could heap up words against you and shake my head at you.”
In context
2“I have heard many things like these; miserable comforters are you all.
3Is there no end to your long-winded speeches? What provokes you to continue testifying?
4I could also speak like you if you were in my place; I could heap up words against you and shake my head at you.
5But I would encourage you with my mouth, and the consolation of my lips would bring relief.
6Even if I speak, my pain is not relieved, and if I hold back, how will it go away?
