Job 16:3-5

Modern English Version

³ Will windy words have an end?
    Or what provokes you that you answer?
⁴ I also could speak as you do,
    if your soul were in my place.
I could heap up words against you
    and shake my head at you;
⁵ but I would strengthen you with my mouth,
    and the moving of my lips would relieve your grief.
