Job 29:22-25 American Standard Version (ASV)

22. After my words they spake not again; And my speech distilled upon them.

23. And they waited for me as for the rain; And they opened their mouth wide as for the latter rain.

24. I smiled on them, when they had no confidence; And the light of my countenance they cast not down.

25. I chose out their way, and sat as chief, And dwelt as a king in the army, As one that comforteth the mourners.
