1 So these three 7969 men 582 ceased 7673 to answer 6030 Job 347, because he was righteous 6662 in his own eyes 5869.
2 Then was kindled 2734 the wrath 639 of Elihu 453 the son 1121 of Barachel 1292 the Buzite 940, of the kindred 4940 of Ram 7410: against Job 347 was his wrath 639 kindled 2734, because he justified 6663 himself 5315 rather than God 430.
3 Also against his three 7969 friends 7453 was his wrath 639 kindled 2734, because they had found 4672 no answer 4617, and yet had condemned 7561 Job 347.
4 Now Elihu 453 had waited 2442 till Job 347 had spoken 1697, because they were elder 2205 3117 than he.
5 When Elihu 453 saw 7200 that there was no answer 4617 in the mouth 6310 of these three 7969 men 582, then his wrath 639 was kindled 2734.
6 And Elihu 453 the son 1121 of Barachel 1292 the Buzite 940 answered 6030 and said 559, I am young 6810 3117, and ye are very old 3453; wherefore I was afraid 2119, and durst 3372 not shew 2331 you mine opinion 1843.
7 I said 559, Days 3117 should speak 1696, and multitude 7230 of years 8141 should teach 3045 wisdom 2451.
8 But 403 there is a spirit 7307 in man 582: and the inspiration 5397 of the Almighty 7706 giveth them understanding 995.
9 Great men 7227 are not always wise 2449: neither do the aged 2205 understand 995 judgment 4941.
10 Therefore I said 559, Hearken 8085 to me; I also will shew 2331 mine opinion 1843.
11 Behold, I waited 3176 for your words 1697; I gave ear 238 to your reasons 8394, whilst ye searched out 2713 what to say 4405.
12 Yea, I attended 995 unto you, and, behold, there was none of you that convinced 3198 Job 347, or that answered 6030 his words 561:
13 Lest ye should say 559, We have found out 4672 wisdom 2451: God 410 thrusteth him down 5086, not man 376.
14 Now he hath not directed 6186 his words 4405 against me: neither will I answer 7725 him with your speeches 561.
15 They were amazed 2865, they answered 6030 no more: they left off 6275 speaking 4405.
16 When I had waited 3176, (for they spake 1696 not, but stood still 5975, and answered 6030 no more;)
17 I said, I will answer 6030 also my part 2506, I also will shew 2331 mine opinion 1843.
18 For I am full 4390 of matter 4405, the spirit 7307 within 990 me constraineth 6693 me.
19 Behold, my belly 990 is as wine 3196 which hath no vent 6605; it is ready to burst 1234 like new 2319 bottles 178.
20 I will speak 1696, that I may be refreshed 7304: I will open 6605 my lips 8193 and answer 6030.
21 Let me not, I pray you, accept 5375 any man's 376 person 6440, neither let me give flattering titles 3655 unto man 120.
22 For I know 3045 not to give flattering titles 3655; in so doing my maker 6213 would soon 4592 take me away 5375.
