Read the surrounding passage, compare related cross references, and turn the verse into a short prayer and concrete action.

When I had waited, (for they spake not, but stood still, and answered no more;)

14Now he hath not directed his words against me: neither will I answer him with your speeches.

15They were amazed, they answered no more: they left off speaking.

16When I had waited, (for they spake not, but stood still, and answered no more;)

17I said, I will answer also my part, I also will shew mine opinion.

18For I am full of matter, the spirit within me constraineth me.
