Then they sat down with him on the ground, seven days and seven nights, and no one spoke a word to him, for they saw that his pain was very great.
In context
11When Job’s three friends heard of all this evil that had come upon him, they came, each from his own place: Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite. They had agreed together to come and grieve with him and comfort him. 12When they looked up from a distance and did not recognize him, they raised their voices and wept. Each one tore his robe, and they threw dust over their heads toward the sky. 13Then they sat down with him on the ground, seven days and seven nights, and no one spoke a word to him, for they saw that his pain was very great.
