Bible verse
“If one ventures a word with you, will you be wearied? Yet who can keep from speaking?
Job 4:2 · BSB
The verses around it, from Job 4.
1 Then Eliphaz the Temanite replied:
2 “If one ventures a word with you, will you be wearied? Yet who can keep from speaking?
3 Surely you have instructed many, and have strengthened their feeble hands.
4 Your words have steadied those who stumbled; you have braced the knees that were buckling.
5 But now trouble has come upon you, and you are weary. It strikes you, and you are dismayed.
6 Is your reverence not your confidence, and the uprightness of your ways your hope?
KJV
[If] we assay to commune with thee, wilt thou be grieved? but who can withhold himself from speaking?
ASV
If one assay to commune with thee, wilt thou be grieved? But who can withhold himself from speaking?
ERV
If one assay to commune with thee, wilt thou be grieved? but who can withhold himself from speaking?
