Wisdom of Solomon 8:12

12 They shall wait for me when I hold my peace, and they shall look upon me when I speak; and if I talk much, they shall lay their hands on their mouth.

Wisdom of Solomon 8:12 — New Revised Standard Version: Updated Edition (NRSVue)

12 When I am silent they will wait for me,

and when I speak they will give heed;

if I speak at greater length,

they will put their hands on their mouths.
