Job 33:31 Meaning and Commentary

Job 33:31

Mark well, O Job
Consider and weigh well what has been said; or rather attend to what is further to be said:

hearken unto me;
to what he was about to say; for he was full of matter, and had not yet vented all he had to utter:

hold thy peace, and I will speak;
be silent and do not interrupt, and I will go on with my discourse.

Job 33:31 In-Context

29 Truly, God does all these things to man, twice and three times,

30 Keeping back his soul from the underworld, so that he may see the light of life.

31 Take note O Job, give ear to me; keep quiet, while I say what is in my mind.

32 If you have anything to say, give me an answer; for it is my desire that you may be judged free from sin.

33 If not, give attention to me, and keep quiet, and I will give you wisdom.
