1Then Job answered and said,

2I have heard many such things: Miserable comforters are ye all.

3Shall vain words have an end? Or what provoketh thee that thou answerest?

4I also could speak as ye do; If your soul were in my soul’s stead, I could join words together against you, And shake my head at you.

5But I would strengthen you with my mouth, And the solace of my lips would assuage your grief.
