Job 32:1-7 ▼

1 These three men stopped responding to Job, because he was claiming to be righteous, in his own opinion.

2 But then Barachel's son Elihu from Buz, one of Ram's descendants, got really angry. He was furious with Job because he had been declaring himself righteous instead of vindicating God.

3 Furthermore, he was furious with his three friends because they had not answered Job, but instead had condemned him.

4 Elihu waited to have a word with Job, since the others were older than he,

5 but when he saw that there had been no response from those three, he got even more angry.

6 Barachel's son Elihu from Buz responded and said: I'm younger than you are. Because you're older, I was terrified to tell you what I know.

7 I thought, experience should speak; abundance of years teaches wisdom.
