Job 32

1 So these three men ceased to answer Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes.ERV — Job 32:1

2 Then was kindled the wrath of Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the family of Ram: against Job was his wrath kindled, because he justified himself rather than God.ERV — Job 32:2

3 Also against his three friends was his wrath kindled, because they had found no answer, and yet had condemned Job.ERV — Job 32:3

4 Now Elihu had waited to speak unto Job, because they were elder than he.ERV — Job 32:4

5 And when Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of these three men, his wrath was kindled.ERV — Job 32:5

6 And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said, I am young, and ye are very old; wherefore I held back, and durst not shew you mine opinion.ERV — Job 32:6

7 I said, Days should speak, and multitude of years should teach wisdom.ERV — Job 32:7

8 But there is a spirit in man, and the breath of the Almighty giveth them understanding.ERV — Job 32:8

9 It is not the great that are wise, nor the aged that understand judgment.ERV — Job 32:9

10 Therefore I said, Hearken to me; I also will shew mine opinion.ERV — Job 32:10

11 Behold, I waited for your words, I listened for your reasons, whilst ye searched out what to say.ERV — Job 32:11

12 Yea, I attended unto you, and, behold, there was none that convinced Job, or that answered his words, among you.ERV — Job 32:12

13 Beware lest ye say, We have found wisdom; God may vanquish him, not man:ERV — Job 32:13

14 For he hath not directed his words against me; neither will I answer him with your speeches.ERV — Job 32:14

15 They are amazed, they answer no more: they have not a word to say.ERV — Job 32:15

16 And shall I wait, because they speak not, because they stand still, and answer no more?ERV — Job 32:16

17 I also will answer my part, I also will shew mine opinion.ERV — Job 32:17

18 For I am full of words; the spirit within me constraineth me.ERV — Job 32:18

19 Behold, my belly is as wine which hath no vent; like new bottles it is ready to burst.ERV — Job 32:19

20 I will speak, that I may be refreshed; I will open my lips and answer.ERV — Job 32:20

21 Let me not, I pray you, respect any man's person; neither will I give flattering titles unto any man.ERV — Job 32:21

22 For I know not to give flattering titles; else would my Maker soon take me away.ERV — Job 32:22
