Job 32
Peshitta Holy Bible Translated Par ▾ 
1And these three men who had wanted the condemnation of Job were silent, because he was righteous in their eyes 2And Elihu son of Barakiel, the Buzite, from the generation of Ramun, his anger was provoked against Job, for he justified himself more than God 3And he was provoked against his three fellows because they were not able to give an answer to Job and to condemn him 4And Elihu rebuked Job with words, because they were older than he in days 5And Elihu saw that these three men were unable to give him an answer, and his anger was provoked

6And Elihu, son of Barakiel the Buzite answered, and he said: “Because I am lesser than you in days, and you are Elders, because of this I was afraid and I was shaken to show you my knowledge

7For I have said, ‘days are speaking and a multitude of years teach wisdom’

8Truly a spirit is in a man and the breath of God is discernment to them

9It is not therefore abundance of days that makes wise, neither is it the old ones who discern judgment

10Because of this, I say: ‘hear me, and also I shall show you my knowledge’

11Behold, I kept silent for you and for your words, and I paid attention until you finished and I examined you with words

12And I discerned your testimony, and behold, there is no reprover for Job, or one of you giving him an answer

13For you say, ‘we have found wisdom; God is he who has wounded him, and not a son of man’

14I will not speak contradictory words, and I do not offer him your counsel”

15They stopped and they did not answer him; they abstained from words and they kept silent

16Because they were not speaking, therefore they rose up and they did not answer him again

17“I shall answer also with my word, and I shall show also my knowledge

18Because I am filled with words and The Spirit is poured out into my belly

19Behold, my belly is pained, and is not opened, and like Ab – in the month of harvest, it bursts

20I shall speak and it will relieve me; I shall open my lips and I shall give an answer

21I shall not accept the face of a man, and I shall not be ashamed of the face of a man

22Because I do not know shame, or in a little while my Strength would have taken me away
