Job 35:16

Job
Words and speech

14 How much less, then, when you say that you do not see Him, that your case is before Him and you must wait for Him,

15 and further, that in His anger He has not punished or taken much notice of folly!

So Job opens his mouth in vain and multiplies words without knowledge.”
