Job 29:21-23

EasyEnglish Bible

²¹ People waited patiently to hear to my advice.
    They listened carefully to what I said.
²² After I had spoken,
    they did not say any more.
They listened to every word
    and they thought about it.
²³ They would wait for me to speak to them,
    like people who wait for rain to fall.
My words would make them happy,
    like rain in spring that makes a farmer happy.
