Job 29:23 in Context — Job 29
21 Ouviam-me, e esperavam; e se calavam ao meu conselho.
22 Depois de minha palavra nada replicavam, e minhas razões gotejavam sobre eles.
23 Pois esperavam por mim como pela chuva, e abriam sua boca como para a chuva tardia.
24 Se eu me ria com eles, não acreditavam; e não desfaziam a luz de meu rosto.
25 Eu escolhia o caminho para eles, e me sentava à cabeceira; e habitava como rei entre as tropas, como o consolador dos que choram.
