Job 16:1 In-Context

1 In response Iyov said:
2 "I have heard this stuff so often! Such sorry comforters, all of you!
3 Is there no end to words of wind? What provokes you to answer this way?
4 "If I were in your place, I too could speak as you do -I could string phrases together against you and shake my head at you.
5 I could 'strengthen' you with my mouth, with lip service I could 'ease your grief.'
