约伯记 32:16

16 我 岂 因 他 们 不 说 话 ， 站 住 不 再 回 答 ， 仍 旧 等 候 呢 ？

约伯记 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.

约伯记 32:16 In-Context

14 约 伯 没 有 向 我 争 辩 ； 我 也 不 用 你 们 的 话 回 答 他 。

15 他 们 惊 奇 不 再 回 答 ， 一 言 不 发 。

16 我 岂 因 他 们 不 说 话 ， 站 住 不 再 回 答 ， 仍 旧 等 候 呢 ？

17 我 也 要 回 答 我 的 一 分 话 ， 陈 说 我 的 意 见 。

18 因 为 我 的 言 语 满 怀 ； 我 里 面 的 灵 激 动 我 。
