Job 32:6-22
6So ElihuH453 the sonH1121 of BarachelH1292 the BuziteH940 1spokeH6030 outH6030 and saidH559, “I am youngH6810 in yearsH3117 and you are 2oldH3453; ThereforeH5921H3651 I was shyH2119 and afraidH3372 to tellH2331 you 3whatH1843 I thinkH1843.7I 4thoughtH559 56ageH3117 should speakH1696, And 7increasedH7230 yearsH8141 should teachH3045 wisdomH2451.8But it is a spiritH7307 that is in mankindH582, And the 8breathH5397 of the AlmightyH7706 givesH995 them 9understandingH995.9The 10abundantH7227 in years may not beH2449 wiseH2449, NorH3808 may 11eldersH2205 understandH995 justiceH4941.10SoH3651 I 12sayH559, ‘ListenH8085 to me, I tooH637 will tellH2331 13whatH1843 I thinkH1843.’
11“BeholdH2005, I waitedH3176 for your wordsH1697, I listenedH238 to your skillfulH8394 speechH8394, WhileH5704 you 14ponderedH2713 whatH4405 toH4405 sayH4405.12I also paidH995 closeH995 attentionH995 to you; But 15indeedH2009, thereH369 was noH369 oneH369 who refutedH3198 JobH347, Not one of you who answeredH6030 his wordsH561.13SoH6435 doH6435 notH6435 sayH559, ‘16We have foundH4672 wisdomH2451: GodH410 will 17defeatH5086 him, not manH376.’14But he has not presentedH6186 his wordsH4405 againstH413 me, NorH3808 will I replyH7725 to him with your 18argumentsH561.
15“They are dismayedH2865, they noH3808 longerH5750 answerH6030; WordsH4405 have 19failedH6275 them.16Should I waitH3176, becauseH3588 they are not speakingH1696, BecauseH3588 they have 20stoppedH5975 and noH3808 longerH5750 answerH6030?17I tooH637 will 21giveH6030 my shareH2506 of answersH6030; I alsoH637 will tellH2331 my opinionH1843.18For I am fullH4390 of wordsH4405; The spiritH7307 withinH990 me compelsH6693 me.19BeholdH2009, my bellyH990 is like unventedH3808H6605 wineH3196; Like newH2319 wineskinsH178, it is about to burstH1234.20Let me speakH1696 so that I may getH7304 reliefH7304; Let me openH6605 my lipsH8193 and answerH6030.21Let me 22beH5375 partialH5375H6440 to noH408 oneH376, NorH3808 flatterH3655 any manH120.22For I do not knowH3045 how to flatterH3655, Otherwise my MakerH6213 would quicklyH4592 takeH5375 me away.
