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 Look, God does all this, twice, three times with persons

30 to bring them back from the pit, to shine with life's light.

31 Listen, Job; hear me; be quiet, and I will speak.

32 If you have words, answer me; speak, for I want to be innocent.

33 If not, you must hear me; be quiet, and I will teach you wisdom.
