16 So Job opens his mouth with empty talk;

without knowledge he multiplies words.”

16 Therefore doth Job open his mouth in vain;

He multiplieth words without knowledge.

16 But you are talking nonsense, Job.

You have spoken like a fool.”

16 Therefore Job opens his mouth in vain;

He multiplies words without knowledge.”

16 So Job is only speaking nonsense,

saying many words without knowing what is true.”

16 Therefore doth Job open his mouth in vanity;

He multiplieth words without knowledge.

16 For Job hath opened his mouth in vanity, and made words abundant without knowledge.

16 Job opens his mouth for no good reason 

and talks a lot without having any knowledge.” 

16 Job opens his mouth in vain

and multiplies words without knowledge.

16 Job opens his mouth in empty talk,

he multiplies words without knowledge.”

16 therefore Job opens his mouth in empty talk—

without knowledge he multiplies words.”

16 So you say things that don’t mean anything.

You use a lot of words,

but you don’t know what you are talking about.”

16 So Job opens his mouth emptily;

He multiplies words without knowledge.”
