If only you would keep completely silent! For you, that would be wisdom.

惟愿你们全然不作声；这就算为你们的智慧！

願爾緘默無言、斯為爾智、

爾不如緘口勿語、則猶可藏拙。

If only you would be altogether silent! For you, that would be wisdom.

I wish you would keep your mouths shut! Then people would think you were wise.

Oh that you would keep silent, and it would be your wisdom!

If only you could be silent! That’s the wisest thing you could do.

If only you would shut up and let that be your wisdom!

Oh that you would be completely silent, And that it would become your wisdom!

Oh, that you would be silent, And it would be your wisdom!

Oh that ye would altogether hold your peace! And it would be your wisdom.

If only you would shut up and let that be your wisdom!

O that ye would altogether hold your peace! and it should be your wisdom.

Oh that you would be completely silent! Then you would be wise.

Even a fool who remains silent is considered wise, and the one who holds his tongue is deemed discerning.

Just as dreams come when there are many cares, so the rash vow of a fool occurs when there are many words.

“ Refrain from talking with me so that I may speak; then let come to me what may.

Understand this, my dear brothers and sisters! Let every person be quick to listen, slow to speak, slow to anger.

“ How long until you make an end of words? You must consider, and then we can talk.

Will there be an end to your windy words? Or what provokes you that you answer?

Will your idle talk reduce people to silence, and will no one rebuke you when you mock?

So these three men refused to answer Job further, because he was righteous in his own eyes.

“ How long will you torment me and crush me with your words?

For this reason whoever is smart keeps quiet in such a time, for it is an evil time.

“ Listen carefully to my words; let this be the consolation you offer me.Bear with me and I will speak, and after I have spoken you may mock.
