- 1And these three men ceased to answer Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes.
- 2Then was kindled the anger of Elihu the son of Barachel, the Buzite, of the family of Ram: against Job was his anger kindled, because he justified himself rather than God;

- 3and against his three friends was his anger kindled, because they found no answer, and [supplied: yet] condemned Job.
- 4But Elihu had waited till Job had finished speaking, because they were older than he.
- 5And Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of the three men, and his anger was kindled.
- 6And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said, I am young, and ye are aged; wherefore I was timid, and feared to shew you what I know.

- 7I said, Let days speak, and multitude of years teach wisdom.
- 8But there is a spirit which is in man; and the breath of the Almighty giveth them understanding.
- 9It is not the great that are wise; neither do the aged understand judgment.
- 10Therefore I say, Hearken to me; I also will shew what I know.
- 11Lo, I waited for your words; I gave ear to your reasonings, until ye searched out what to say.
- 12Yea, I gave you mine attention, and behold, there was none of you that confuted Job, that answered his words;
- 13That ye may not say, We have found out wisdom; God will make him yield, not man.
- 14Now he hath not directed [supplied: his] words against me; and I will not answer him with your speeches. ...
- 15They were amazed, they answered no more; words failed them.
- 16And I waited, for they spoke not, but stood still, and answered no more; --
- 17I will answer, I also in my turn, I also will shew what I know:
- 18For I am full of matter, the spirit within me constraineth me.
- 19Behold, my belly is as wine which hath no vent; like new flasks, it is ready to burst.
- 20I will speak, that I may find relief; I will open my lips and answer.
- 21Let me not, I pray you, accept any man's person; neither will I give flattery to man.
- 22For I know not how to flatter; my Maker would soon take me away.
