Thanks for those.

In context, what do any of those verses have to do with prayer? None uses the word. The word is used many, many times, always of believers speaking to God. And there are times to shut up. But is there a verse that calls shutting up "prayer"?

When we shut up that's when we're listening, i.e, "contemplating".
