Job 32:6-9 (Listen)

And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said:

“I am young in years,

and you are zaged;

therefore I was timid and afraid

to declare my opinion to you.

I said, ‘Let days speak,

and many years teach wisdom.’

But it is athe spirit in man,

bthe breath of the Almighty, that makes him cunderstand.

dIt is not the old1 who are wise,

nor the aged who understand what is right.
