Hear My Words, Ye Wise Men — Job 33:29–34:4

Lo, all these things doth God work,
Twice, yea thrice, with a man,

To bring back his soul from the pit,
That he may be enlightened with the light of the living.

Mark well, O Job, hearken unto me:
Hold thy peace, and I will speak.

If thou hast anything to say, answer me:
Speak, for I desire to justify thee.

If not, hearken thou unto me:
Hold thy peace, and I will teach thee wisdom.

Moreover Elihu answered and said,

Hear my words, ye wise men;
And give ear unto me, ye that have knowledge.

For the ear trieth words,
As the palate tasteth food.

Let us choose for us that which is right:
Let us know among ourselves what is good.
