Job Promises Silence
3 Then Job answered the Lord and said:
4 “Behold, I am (A)of small account; what shall I answer you?
(B)I lay my hand on my mouth.
5 I have spoken (C)once, and I will not answer;
(D)twice, but I will proceed no further.”

3 Then Job replied to the Lord,
4 “I am nothing—how could I ever find the answers?
I will cover my mouth with my hand.
5 I have said too much already.
I have nothing more to say.”
