Job 16:3-5

The Voice

³     Have we reached the end of your windy words,
        or are you sick with something that compels you to argue with me?
⁴     If we were to trade places,
        I could rattle on as you do.
    I could compose eloquent speeches as you do
        and shake my head smugly at you and your problems.
⁵     But I believe I would use my words to encourage you;
        my lips would move only to offer you relief.
