32:1 These three men stopped trying to answer Job, because he was so sure he was right.
32:2 But Elihu son of Barakel the Buzite, from the family of Ram, became very angry with Job, because Job claimed he was right instead of God.
32:3 Elihu was also angry with Job’s three friends who had no answer to show that Job was wrong, yet continued to blame him.
32:4 Elihu had waited before speaking to Job, because the three friends were older than he was.
32:5 But when Elihu saw that the three men had nothing more to say, he became very angry.
32:6 So Elihu son of Barakel the Buzite said this: “I am young, and you are old. That is why I was afraid to tell you what I know.
32:7 I thought, ‘Older people should speak, and those who have lived many years should teach wisdom.’
32:8 But it is the spirit in a person, the breath of the Almighty, that gives understanding.
32:9 It is not just older people who are wise; they are not the only ones who understand what is right.
32:10 So I say, listen to me. I too will tell you what I know.
32:11 I waited while you three spoke, and listened to your explanations. While you looked for words to use,
32:12 I paid close attention to you. But not one of you has proved Job wrong; none of you has answered his arguments.
32:13 Don’t say, ‘We have found wisdom; only God will show Job to be wrong, not people.’
32:14 Job has not spoken his words against me, so I will not use your arguments to answer Job.
32:15 “These three friends are defeated and have no more to say; words have failed them.
32:16 Now they are standing there with no answers for Job. Now that they are quiet, must I wait to speak?
32:17 No, I too will speak and tell what I know.
32:18 I am full of words, and the spirit in me causes me to speak.
32:19 I am like wine that has been bottled up; I am ready to burst like a new leather wine bag.
32:20 I must speak so I will feel relief; I must open my mouth and answer.
32:21 I will be fair to everyone and not flatter anyone.
32:22 I don’t know how to flatter, and if I did, my Maker would quickly take me away.
