Job 29:9-12 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

9. The leading men stopped speakingand covered their mouths with their hands.

10. The voices of the important men were quiet.It was as if each man’s tongue stuck to the roof of his mouth.

11. Anyone who heard me said good things about me.And those who saw me praised me.

12. This was because I saved the poor who cried for help.And I saved the orphan who had no one to help him.
