SO these three men ceased to answer Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014117">2</a>. Then was kindled the wrath of Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the kindred of Ram: against Job was his wrath kindled, because he justified himself rather than God.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014118">3</a>. Also against his three friends was his wrath kindled, because they had found no answer, and yet had condemned Job.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014119">4</a>. Now Elihu had waited till Job had spoken, because they were elder than he.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014120">5</a>. When Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of these three men, then his wrath was kindled.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014121">6</a>. And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said, I am young, and ye are very old; wherefore I was afraid, and durst not shew you mine opinion.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014122">7</a>. I said, Days should speak, and multitude of years should teach wisdom.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014123">8</a>. But there is a spirit in man: and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014124">9</a>. Great men are not always wise: neither do the aged understand judgment.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014125">10</a>. Therefore I said, Hearken to me; I also will shew mine opinion.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014126">11</a>. Behold, I waited for your words; I gave ear to your reasons, whilst ye searched out what to say.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014127">12</a>. Yea, I attended unto you, and, behold, there was none of you that convinced Job, or that answered his words:</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014128">13</a>. Lest ye should say, We have found out wisdom: God thrusteth him down, not man.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014129">14</a>. Now he hath not directed his words against me: neither will I answer him with your speeches.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014130">15</a>. They were amazed, they answered no more: they left off speaking.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014131">16</a>. When I had waited, (for they spake not, but stood still, and answered no more;)</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014132">17</a>. I said, I will answer also my part, I also will shew mine opinion.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014133">18</a>. For I am full of matter, the spirit within me constraineth me.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014134">19</a>. Behold, my belly is as wine which hath no vent; it is ready to burst like new bottles.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014135">20</a>. I will speak, that I may be refreshed: I will open my lips and answer.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014136">21</a>. Let me not, I pray you, accept any man's person, neither let me give flattering titles unto man.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1014137">22</a>. For I know not to give flattering titles; in so doing my maker would soon take me away.</li>
