16 我 豈 因 他 們 不 說 話 , 站 住 不 再 回 答 , 仍 舊 等 候 呢 ?

約伯記 32:16 Meaning and Commentary

Job 32:16

When one had waited
To observe whether they would make any reply to what he had said, or any objection to his engaging in the controversy:

for they spake not;
were as mute as fishes:

but stood still;
like statues, had no power to move, neither to sit down nor to depart, but were as if all life, sense, and motion, were gone from them:

[and] answered no more;
or not at all; for it does not appear that they had given him any answer before, as well as not now.

約伯記 32:16 In-Context

14 約 伯 沒 有 向 我 爭 辯 ; 我 也 不 用 你 們 的 話 回 答 他 。
15 他 們 驚 奇 不 再 回 答 , 一 言 不 發 。
16 我 豈 因 他 們 不 說 話 , 站 住 不 再 回 答 , 仍 舊 等 候 呢 ?
17 我 也 要 回 答 我 的 一 分 話 , 陳 說 我 的 意 見 。
18 因 為 我 的 言 語 滿 懷 ; 我 裡 面 的 靈 激 動 我 。
