1 Then Job replied:

2 “I have heard many things like these;

you are miserable comforters, all of you!

3 Will your long-winded speeches never end?

What ails you that you keep on arguing?

1 Then Job answered and said:

2 “I have heard many such things;

miserable comforters are you all.

3 Shall windy words have an end?

Or what provokes you that you answer?

1 Then Job answered and said,

2 I have heard many such things:

Miserable comforters are ye all.

3 Shall vain words have an end?

Or what emboldeneth thee that thou answerest?

1 Then Job spoke again:

2 “I have heard all this before.

What miserable comforters you are!

3 Won’t you ever stop blowing hot air?

What makes you keep on talking?

1 Then Job answered:

2 “I have heard many things like these.

You are all painful comforters!

3 Will your long-winded speeches never end?

What makes you keep on arguing?

1 Then Job answered and said,

2 I have heard many such things:

Miserable comforters are ye all.

3 Shall vain words have an end?

Or what provoketh thee that thou answerest?

1 And Job answered and said, 2 I have heard many such things: grievous comforters are ye all. 3 Shall words of wind have an end? or what provoketh thee that thou answerest?

1 Then Job replied ⸤to his friends⸥, 

2 “I have heard many things like this before. 

You are all pathetic at comforting me. 

3 Will ⸤your⸥ long-winded speeches never end? 

What disturbs you that you keep on answering ⸤me⸥? 

1 Then Job answered:

2 I have heard many things like these.

You are all miserable comforters.

3 Is there no end to your empty words?

What provokes you that you continue testifying?

1 Then Job answered:

2 “I have heard many such things;

miserable comforters are you all.

3 Have windy words no limit?

Or what provokes you that you keep on talking?

1 Then Job answered and said,

2 “I have heard many things like these;

all of you are miserable comforters.

3 Is there a limit to windy words?

What provokes you that you answer?

1 Job replied,

2 “I’ve heard many of those things before.

You are terrible at comforting me!

3 Your speeches go on forever.

Won’t they ever end?

What’s wrong with you?

Why do you keep on arguing?

1 Then Job answered,

2 “I have heard many such things;

Sorry comforters are you all.

3 “Is there no limit to windy words?

Or what plagues you that you answer?
