So these threeH7969 menH582 ceasedH7673 to answerH6030 JobH347, because he was righteousH6662 in his own eyesH5869. {to…: Heb. from answering}
Then was kindledH2734 the wrathH639 of ElihuH453 the sonH1121 of BarachelH1292 the BuziteH940, of the kindredH4940 of RamH7410: against JobH347 was his wrathH639 kindledH2734, because he justifiedH6663 himselfH5315 rather than GodH430. {himself: Heb. his soul}
Also against his threeH7969 friendsH7453 was his wrathH639 kindledH2734, because they had foundH4672 no answerH4617, and yet had condemnedH7561 JobH347.
Now ElihuH453 had waitedH2442 till JobH347 had spokenH1697, because they were elderH2205+H3117 than he. {waited…: Heb. expected Job in words} {elder: Heb. elder for days}
When ElihuH453 sawH7200 that there was no answerH4617 in the mouthH6310 of these threeH7969 menH582, then his wrathH639 was kindledH2734.
And ElihuH453 the sonH1121 of BarachelH1292 the BuziteH940 answeredH6030 and saidH559, I am youngH6810+H3117, and ye are very oldH3453; wherefore I was afraidH2119, and durstH3372 not shewH2331 you mine opinionH1843. {young: Heb. few of days} {durst…: Heb. feared}
I saidH559, DaysH3117 should speakH1696, and multitudeH7230 of yearsH8141 should teachH3045 wisdomH2451.
ButH403 there is a spiritH7307 in manH582: and the inspirationH5397 of the AlmightyH7706 giveth them understandingH995.
Great menH7227 are not always wiseH2449: neither do the agedH2205 understandH995 judgmentH4941.
Therefore I saidH559, HearkenH8085 to me; I also will shewH2331 mine opinionH1843.
Behold, I waitedH3176 for your wordsH1697; I gave earH238 to your reasonsH8394, whilst ye searched outH2713 what to sayH4405. {reasons: Heb. understandings} {what…: Heb. words}
Yea, I attendedH995 unto you, and, behold, there was none of you that convincedH3198 JobH347, or that answeredH6030 his wordsH561:
Lest ye should sayH559, We have found outH4672 wisdomH2451: GodH410 thrusteth him downH5086, not manH376.
Now he hath not directedH6186 his wordsH4405 against me: neither will I answerH7725 him with your speechesH561. {directed: or, ordered}
They were amazedH2865, they answeredH6030 no more: they left offH6275 speakingH4405. {left…: Heb. removed speeches from themselves}
When I had waitedH3176, (for they spakeH1696 not, but stood stillH5975, and answeredH6030 no more;)
I said, I will answerH6030 also my partH2506, I also will shewH2331 mine opinionH1843.
For I am fullH4390 of matterH4405, the spiritH7307 withinH990 me constrainethH6693 me. {matter: Heb. words} {spirit…: Heb. spirit of my belly}
Behold, my bellyH990 is as wineH3196 which hath no ventH6605; it is ready to burstH1234 like newH2319 bottlesH178. {hath…: Heb. is not opened}
I will speakH1696, that I may be refreshedH7304: I will openH6605 my lipsH8193 and answerH6030. {be…: Heb. breathe}
Let me not, I pray you, acceptH5375 any man'sH376 personH6440, neither let me give flattering titlesH3655 unto manH120.
For I knowH3045 not to give flattering titlesH3655; in so doing my makerH6213 would soonH4592 take me awayH5375.

And they spakeH1696 unto him, sayingH559, If thou wilt be a servantH5650 unto this peopleH5971 this dayH3117, and wilt serveH5647 them, and answerH6030 them, and speakH1696 goodH2896 wordsH1697 to them, then they will be thy servantsH5650 for everH3117.
But he forsookH5800 the counselH6098 of the old menH2205, which they had givenH3289 him, and consultedH3289 with the young menH3206 that were grown upH1431 with him, and which stoodH5975 beforeH6440 him:
