I called {H7121} my servant {H5650}, and he gave me no answer {H6030}; I intreated {H2603} him with {H1119} my mouth {H6310}.

I call my servant, and he doesn't answer, even if I beg him for a favor!

I call for my servant, but he does not answer, though I implore him with my own mouth.

I call unto my servant, and he giveth me no answer, ThoughI entreat him with my mouth.
