Exegesis
The main clause uses tesimun {תְּשִׂימ֣וּן | tə-śi-mūn} with the object kintsei le-milin {קִנְצֵ֣י לְמִלִּ֑ין | qin-ṣê lə-mil-lîn}, an idiomatic expression meaning to set “end-points” for speech, that is, to stop talking and conclude.
In context — Job 18:2
How long will you make an end of words? Mark, and afterward we will speak.
