The Book of Job

And these three men rested from answering Job, because he [was] righteous in his own eyes.

And burned the wrath of Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the family of Ram; his wrath burned against Job, because he had justified himself rather than God.

Also his wrath burned against his three friends, because they had not found [any] answer, yet they had condemned Job.

And Elihu had waited for Job with words, because they [were] older than he in days.

When Elihu saw that there [was] no answer in the mouth of the three men, then his anger burned.

And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said, I [am] young, and you [are] very aged; so I held back and was afraid to make my knowledge known to you.

I said, Days will speak, and many years will make wisdom known.

But it [is] a spirit in man giving them perception, even the breath of the Almighty.

[It is] not the great that are wise, nor the aged who perceive justice;

so then I say, Listen to me; I will declare my knowledge, I also.

Behold, I waited for your words; I listened to your reasons while you searched out words;

yea, I paid attention to you, and behold, not one of you proved Job wrong, [nor] answered his sayings;

that you not say, We have discovered wisdom. [It is] God who will scatter him, not man.

And he has not ordered words against me, and I will not answer him with your words.

They are broken; they do not reply again; words have departed from them.

Shall I wait because they do not speak, because they stand, not answering again?

I also will answer my share; I also will declare my knowledge.

For I am full of words; the spirit inside me pressed on me;

behold my breast [is] like wine that has no vent; it bursts like new wineskins.

I will speak so that I may be relieved; I will open my lips and answer.

I will not now lift up the face of a man, nor eulogize [any] man.

for I do not know how to eulogize; else after a little my Maker will take me away.
