American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
For he hath not directed his words against me;Neither will I answer him with your speeches.
They are amazed, they answer no more:They have not a word to say.
And shall I wait, because they speak not,Because they stand still, and answer no more?
I also will answer my part,I also will show mine opinion.
For I am full of words;The spirit within me constraineth me.
Behold, my breast is as wine which hath no vent;Like new wine-skins {Or, which are ready}it is ready to burst.
I will speak, that I may {Or, find relief}be refreshed;I will open my lips and answer.
Let me not, I pray you, respect any man's person;Neither will I give flattering titles unto any man.
For I know not to give flattering titles;Else would my Maker soon take me away.
