Therefore I will not refrain my mouth; I will speak in the anguish of my spirit; I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.

Verse 11 is found in chapter 7 of Job. Job now directs his words directly to God. He asks why God watches over human beings and why he does not grant relief. He even asks for forgiveness for an unspecified fault, wondering what he could have done to become the target of such attention. The prayer reveals a relationship with God that is still active: Job protests precisely because he continues addressing him.

Darum will ich auch meinem Munde nicht wehren; ich will reden in der Angst meines Herzens und will klagen in der Betrübnis meiner Seele.
Por tanto yo no reprimiré mi boca; Hablaré en la angustia de mi espíritu, Y quejareme con la amargura de mi alma.
Por eso yo tampoco refrenaré mi boca: hablaré en la angustia de mi espíritu, me quejaré en la amargura de mi alma.
C'est pourquoi je ne retiendrai point ma bouche, Je parlerai dans l'angoisse de mon coeur, Je me plaindrai dans l'amertume de mon âme.
Io altresì non ratterrò la mia bocca; Io parlerò nell’angoscia del mio spirito, Io mi lamenterò nell’amaritudine dell’anima mia.
Por isso não reprimirei a minha boca; falarei na angústia do meu espírito; queixar-me-ei na amargura da minha alma.
「我甚至不封我的口; 我靈愁苦,要發出言語; 我心苦惱,要吐露哀情。
