Job 29:9

The princes refrained talking

Job 29:9 In-Context

7 Toen ik uitging naar de poort door de stad, toen ik mijn stoel op de straat liet bereiden.
8 De jongens zagen mij, en verstaken zich, en de stokouden rezen op en stonden.
9 De oversten hielden de woorden in, en leiden de hand op hun mond.
10 De stem der vorsten verstak zich, en hun tong kleefde aan hun gehemelte.
11 Als een oor mij hoorde, zo hield het mij gelukzalig; als mij een oog zag, zo getuigde het van mij.
