Elihu
in Anger Rebukes Job |
|
|
 |
| Job 32:1 |
|
Then these three men ceased answering Job, because
he was righteous in his own eyes. |
|
|
|
|
| Job 32:2 |
|
But the anger of Elihu the son of Barachel the
Buzite, of the family of Ram burned; against Job his anger burned because he justified
himself before God. |
| |
|
|
| Job 32:3 |
|
And his anger burned against his three friends
because they had found no answer, and yet had condemned Job. |
| |
|
|
| Job 32:4 |
|
Now Elihu had waited to speak to Job because
they were years older than he. |
| |
|
|
| Job 32:5 |
|
And when Elihu saw that there was no answer
in the mouth of the three men his anger burned. |
| |
|
|
| Job 32:6 |
|
So Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite spoke
out and said, "I am young in years and you are old; Therefore I was shy and afraid
to tell you what I think. |
| |
|
|
| Job 32:7 |
|
"I thought age should speak, And increased years
should teach wisdom. |
|
|
|
| Job 32:8 |
|
"But it is a spirit in man, And the breath of
the Almighty gives them understanding. |
|
|
|
| Job 32:9 |
|
"The abundant in years may not be wise, Nor
may elders understand justice. |
|
|
|
| Job 32:10 |
|
"So I say, 'Listen to me, I too will tell what
I think.' |
|
|
|
| Job 32:11 |
|
"Behold, I waited for your words, I listened
to your reasonings, While you pondered what to say. |
|
|
|
| Job 32:12 |
|
"I even paid close attention to you; Indeed,
there was no one who refuted Job, Not one of you who answered his words. |
|
|
|
| Job 32:13 |
|
"Do not say, 'We have found wisdom; God will
rout him, not man.' |
|
|
|
| Job 32:14 |
|
"For he has not arranged his words against me,
Nor will I reply to him with your arguments. |
|
|
|
| Job 32:15 |
|
"They are dismayed, they no longer answer; Words
have failed them. |
|
|
|
| Job 32:16 |
|
"Shall I wait, because they do not speak, Because
they stop and no longer answer? |
|
|
|
| Job 32:17 |
|
"I too will answer my share, I also will tell
my opinion. |
|
|
|
| Job 32:18 |
|
"For I am full of words; The spirit within me
constrains me. |
|
|
|
| Job 32:19 |
|
"Behold, my belly is like unvented wine, Like
new wineskins it is about to burst. |
| |
|
|
| Job 32:20 |
|
"Let me speak that I may get relief; Let me
open my lips and answer. |
| |
|
|
| Job 32:21 |
|
"Let me now be partial to no one, Nor flatter
any man. |
|
|
|
|
| Job 32:22 |
|
"For I do not know how to flatter, Else my Maker
would soon take me away. |
