Job35:16

Verſe 16. Therefore doth Job open his mouth in vain] Dilarat, divaricat, rictum diducit ut bellua. An open mouth is oft a purgatory to the Maſter: digito compeſce labellum.

He multiplieth words without knowledge] Eliphaz had charged Job with malice and blaſphemy, chap. 22. Elihu only with vanity, and ignorance. We may not make the worſt of things, but give a favourable interpretation.
