Job 32:4-9

4Now Elihu had waited to speak to Job because the others were years older than he.

5And when Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouths of these three men, he burned with anger.

6Then Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite said, “I am young, and you are aged; For that reason I was anxious and dared not tell you what I think.

7I thought age should speak, And a multitude of years should teach wisdom.

8But there is [a vital force and] a spirit [of intelligence] in man, And the breath of the Almighty gives them understanding.

9Those [who are] abundant in years may not [always] be wise, Nor may the elders [always] understand justice.
