YLT - Job - 32

32:1  And these three men cease from answering Job, for he is righteous in his own eyes,

32:2  and burn doth the anger of Elihu son of Barachel the Buzite, of the family of Ram; against Job hath his anger burned, because of his justifying himself more than God;

32:3  and against his three friends hath his anger burned, because that they have not found an answer, and condemn Job.

32:4  And Elihu hath waited earnestly beside Job with words, for they are older than he in days.

32:5  And Elihu seeth that there is no answer in the mouth of the three men, and his anger burneth.

32:6  And Elihu son of Barachel the Buzite answereth and saith: --Young I am in days, and ye are age Therefore I have feared, And am afraid of shewing you my opinion.

32:7  I said: Days do speak, And multitude of years teach wisdom.

32:8  Surely a spirit is in man, And the breath of the Mighty One Doth cause them to understand.

32:9  The multitude are not wise, Nor do the aged understand judgment.

32:10  Therefore I have said: Hearken to me, I do shew my opinion--even I.

32:11  Lo, I have waited for your words, I give ear unto your reasons, Till ye search out sayings.

32:12  And unto you I attend, And lo, there is no reasoner for Job, Or answerer of his sayings among you.

32:13  Lest ye say, We have found wisdom, God doth thrust him away, not man.

32:14  And he hath not set in array words for me, And with your sayings I do not answer him.

32:15  (They have broken down, They have not answered again, They removed from themselves words.

32:16  And I have waited, but they do not speak, For they have stood still, They have not answered any more.)

32:17  I answer, even I--my share, I shew my opinion--even I.

32:18  For I have been full of words, Distressed me hath the spirit of my breast,

32:19  Lo, my breast is as wine not opened, Like new bottles it is broken up.

32:20  I speak, and there is refreshment to me, I open my lips and answer.

32:21  Let me not, I pray you, accept the face of any, Nor unto man give flattering titles,

32:22  For I have not known to give flattering titles, In a little doth my Maker take me away.
