32:1 So these three men ceased to answer Job, because he [was] righteous in his own eyes. 32:2 Then was kindled the wrath of Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the kindred of Ram: against Job was his wrath kindled, because he justified himself rather than God. 32:3 Also against his three friends was his wrath kindled, because they had found no answer, and [yet] had condemned Job. 32:4 Now Elihu had waited till Job had spoken because they [were] older than he. 32:5 When Elihu saw that [there was] no answer in the mouth of [these] three men, then his wrath was kindled. 32:6 And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said, I [am] young, and ye [are] very old; wherefore I was afraid, and durst not show you my opinion. 32:7 I said, Days should speak, and multitude of years should teach wisdom. 32:8 But [there is] a spirit in man: and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding. 32:9 Great men are not [always] wise: neither do the aged understand judgment. 32:10 Therefore I said, Hearken to me; I also will show my opinion. 32:11 Behold, I waited for your words; I gave ear to your reasons, whilst ye searched out what to say. 32:12 Yes, I attended to you, and behold, [there was] none of you that convinced Job, [or] that answered his words: 32:13 Lest ye should say, We have found out wisdom: God thrusteth him down, not man. 32:14 Now he hath not directed [his] words against me: neither will I answer him with your speeches. 32:15 They were amazed, they answered no more: they left off speaking. 32:16 When I had waited, (for they spoke not, but stood still, [and] answered no more;) 32:17 [I said], I will answer also my part, I also will show my opinion. 32:18 For I am full of matter, the spirit within me constraineth me. 32:19 Behold, my belly [is] as wine [which] hath no vent; it is ready to burst like new bottles. 32:20 I will speak, that I may be refreshed: I will open my lips and answer. 32:21 Let me not, I pray you, accept any man's person, neither let me give flattering titles to man. 32:22 For I know not to give flattering titles; [in so doing], my Maker would soon take me away.
