Job 29:21-23
New Catholic Bible

21 [a]“Men waited expectantly to hear my words
    and listened in silence to my counsel.
22 Once I had spoken, no one spoke further
    but simply let my thoughts penetrate their minds.
23 They waited for me as for the rain,
    with open mouths as though to drink in a spring shower.
