Job 29:7-11 ▼

7 When I went out to the gate by the city, when I prepared my seat on the broadway,

9 Princes refrained from talking, and laid the hand on their mouth;

10 The voice of the nobles was hushed, and their tongue cleaved to their palate.

11 When the ear heard [me], then it blessed me, and when the eye saw [me], it gave witness to me;
