Job 32 — LSV
32Verse 1And these three men cease from answering Job, for he [is] righteous in his own eyes,Verse 2and the anger of Elihu son of Barachel the Buzite burns, of the family of Ram; his anger has burned against Job, because of his justifying himself more than God;Verse 3and his anger has burned against his three friends, because that they have not found an answer, and condemn Job.Verse 4And Elihu has waited earnestly beside Job with words, for they are older than he in days.Verse 5And Elihu sees that there is no answer in the mouth of the three men, and his anger burns.Verse 6And Elihu son of Barachel the Buzite answers and says: “I [am] young in days, and you [are] aged; Therefore I have feared, || And am afraid of showing you my opinion.Verse 7I said, Days speak, || And a multitude of years teach wisdom.Verse 8Surely a spirit is in man, || And the breath of the Mighty One || Causes them to understand.Verse 9The multitude are not wise, || Nor do the aged understand judgment.Verse 10Therefore I have said: Listen to me, I show my opinion—even I.Verse 11Behold, I have waited for your words, I give ear to your reasons, || Until you search out sayings.Verse 12And to you I attend, || And behold, there is no reasoner for Job, || [Or] answerer of his sayings among you.Verse 13Lest you say, We have found wisdom, || God thrusts him away, not man.Verse 14And he has not set words in array for me, || And I do not answer him with your sayings.Verse 15(They have broken down, || They have not answered again, || They removed words from themselves.Verse 16And I have waited, but they do not speak, || For they have stood still, || They have not answered anymore.)Verse 17I answer, even I—my share, || I show my opinion—even I.Verse 18For I have been full of words, || The spirit of my breast has distressed me,Verse 19Behold, my breast [is] as wine not opened, || It is broken up like new bottles.Verse 20I speak, and there is refreshment to me, || I open my lips and answer.Verse 21Please do not let me accept the face of any, || Nor give flattering titles to man,Verse 22For I have not known to give flattering titles, || My Maker takes me away in a little.”
