So they sat down with him upon the ground seven days and seven nights, and none spake a word unto him: for they saw that his grief was very great.
KJV
Et sederunt cum eo in terra septem diebus et septem noctibus : et nemo loquebatur ei verbum : videbant enim dolorem esse vehementem.
Vulgate
παρεκάθισαν αὐτῷ ἑπτὰ ἡμέρας καὶ ἑπτὰ νύκτας, καὶ οὐδεὶς αὐτῶν ἐλάλησεν· ἑώρων γὰρ τὴν πληγὴν δεινὴν οὖσαν καὶ μεγάλην σφόδρα.
LXX
So they sat down with him upon the ground seven days and seven nights, and none spake a word unto him: for they saw that his grief was very great.
