Job 29:20–24 · Berean Standard Bible

20 My glory is ever new within me, and my bow is renewed in my hand.’

21 Men listened to me with expectation, waiting silently for my counsel.

22 After my words, they spoke no more; my speech settled on them like dew.

23 They waited for me as for rain and drank in my words like spring showers.

24 If I smiled at them, they did not believe it; the light of my countenance was precious.
