I am like the deaf and cannot hear, like the dumb and cannot speak.

I am like those who do not answer, because they cannot hear.

"He was treated harshly, but endured it humbly; he never said a word. Like a lamb about to be slaughtered, like a sheep about to be sheared, he never said a word.

But he said nothing in response to the accusations of the chief priests and elders.

But Jesus refused to answer a single word, with the result that the Governor was greatly surprised.

"Do not give what is holy to dogs---they will only turn and attack you. Do not throw your pearls in front of pigs---they will only trample them underfoot.

If I don't get a chance to speak, I will burst like a wineskin full of new wine.

I can't stand it; I have to speak.

For we cannot stop speaking of what we ourselves have seen and heard."
