Job 29:8-10
International Standard Version

8 The young men would see me and withdraw,
    and the aged would rise and stand.
9 Nobles would refrain from speaking,
    covering their mouths with their hands.
10 The voices of the commanders-in-chief[a] were hushed,
    and their tongues would cling to the roofs of their mouths.”
