Job 16:3-5
New American Standard Bible

3 Is there no end to (A)windy words?
Or what provokes you that you answer?
4 I too could speak like you,
If only [a]I were in your place.
I could compose words against you
And (B)shake my head at you.
5 Or I could strengthen you with my mouth,
And the condolence of my lips could lessen your pain.

3 Will your long-winded speeches never end?(A)
    What ails you that you keep on arguing?(B)
4 I also could speak like you,
    if you were in my place;
I could make fine speeches against you
    and shake my head(C) at you.
5 But my mouth would encourage you;
    comfort(D) from my lips would bring you relief.(E)
