Job 32:4-9
4Now Elihu had waited 1to speak to Job because they were years older than he. 5But when Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of the three men, his anger burned.
6So Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite 2spoke out and said, “I am young in years and you are 3old; Therefore I was shy and afraid to tell you 4what I think.7I 5thought 67age should speak, And 8increased years should teach wisdom.8But it is a spirit that is in mankind, And the 9breath of the Almighty gives them 10understanding.9The 11abundant in years may not be wise, Nor may 12elders understand justice.
