Job 16:2-4
New American Standard Bible

Chapter 16

2'I have heard many things like these; Miserable comforters are you all! 3Is there no end to windy words? Or what provokes you that you answer? 4I too could speak like you, If only I were in your place. I could compose words against you And shake my head at you.
King James Version

Chapter 16

2I have heard many such things: miserable comforters are ye all.
3Shall vain words have an end? or what emboldeneth thee that thou answerest?
4I also could speak as ye do: if your soul were in my soul's stead, I could heap up words against you, and shake mine head at you.
Christian Standard Bible

2I have heard many things like these. You are all miserable comforters. 3Is there no end to your empty words? What provokes you that you continue testifying? 4If you were in my place I could also talk like you. I could string words together against you and shake my head at you.
New Living Translation

English Standard Version

New International Version

Chapter 16

2"I have heard many things like these; you are miserable comforters, all of you! 3Will your long-winded speeches never end? What ails you that you keep on arguing? 4I also could speak like you, if you were in my place; I could make fine speeches against you and shake my head at you.
New King James Version

Chapter 16

2“I have heard many such things; Miserable comforters are you all! 3Shall words of wind have an end? Or what provokes you that you answer? 4I also could speak as you do, If your soul were in my soul’s place. I could heap up words against you, And shake my head at you;
