Job 40:3-5

Then Job answered Job, whose confusion had made him silent, at length answered with great humility, and said, Behold I am vile I am a mean, sinful, and wretched creature, and not worthy to speak unto thy majesty; nor do I know what to answer. I will lay my hand upon my mouth I will, for the future, check and suppress all passionate thoughts that may arise in my mind, and, by keeping my mouth, as it were, with a bridle, will prevent them from breaking out in intemperate speeches. I will humbly and willingly submit myself to thee. Once have I spoken, but I will not answer Or speak again. I confess my fault and folly, and will contend no more with thee. Yea, twice That is, oft-times, or again and again, the definite number being used indefinitely. I will proceed no further In such bold and presumptuous expressions, and accusations of thy providence toward me. Vain, therefore, are the excuses which some interpreters make for Job, as if he were faultless in his foregoing speeches, when both God charges him with blame therein, and Job himself confesses that he was blameable.
