When I had waited, (for they spake not, but stood still, and answered no more;)
Esperé a que hablaran, pero se quedaron callados y ya no tenían más respuestas que dar.
Elihú esperó pacientemente, pero los tres amigos de Job se quedaron sin palabras ni respuestas.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the Book of Job, set in ancient patriarchal times, Job's three friends have been debating with him about the reasons for his suffering, insisting it's due to his sins, but they have now fallen silent after exhausting their arguments. Elihu, a younger man who has been listening, is preparing to speak, reflecting the cultural expectation in ancient Near Eastern societies that elders speak first and youth wait their turn. This moment highlights themes of patience and respect for wisdom in the midst of profound human suffering.
