¶ ( 1 ) So these ( 1a ) three men ceased to answer Job, because he was ( g ) righteous in his own eyes. ( a1 )

2 ( 1b ) Then was ( 1c ) kindled the wrath of ( 2 ) Elihu the son of ( 1d ) Barachel the ( h ) Buzite, of the kindred of Ram: against Job was his wrath kindled, because he justified ( a ) himself rather than God ( 1e ) . ( a2 )
3 Also against his three friends was his wrath kindled, because they had found no answer, and yet had condemned Job. 4 Now Elihu had waited till Job had spoken, because they were elder than he. 5 ( 1f ) When Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of these three men, then his wrath was kindled. 6 ¶ And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said, I ( 1g ) am young, and ( b ) ye are very old; wherefore I was afraid, and durst not shew you mine opinion. 7 I said, Days should ( 1h ) speak, and multitude of ( 1i ) years should teach wisdom. 8 But there is a spirit in man: and the ( c ) inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding. 9 Great men are not always wise: neither do the aged understand judgment. 10 Therefore I said, Hearken to me; I also will shew mine opinion. 11 Behold, I waited for your words; I gave ear to your reasons, whilst ye searched out what to say. 12 Yea, I attended unto you, and, behold, there was none of you that convinced Job, or that answered his words: 13 ( d ) Lest ye should say, We have found out wisdom: God thrusteth him down, not man. 14 Now he hath not directed his words against me: neither will I answer him with your speeches. 15 ¶ They were amazed, they answered no more: they left off speaking. 16 When I had waited, (for they spake not, but stood still, and answered no more;) 17 I said, I will answer also my part, I also will shew mine opinion. 18 For I am full of matter, the spirit within me ( e ) constraineth me. 19 Behold, my belly is as wine which hath no vent; it is ready to burst like new bottles. 20 I will speak, that I may be refreshed: I will open my lips and answer. 21 Let me not, I pray you, accept any man's person, neither let me give ( 1j ) flattering titles unto man. 22 For I ( 1k ) know not to give ( 1l ) flattering titles; in so doing my maker would soon take me away. |
