6. And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said, I am young, and ye are very old; Wherefore I held back, and durst not show you mine opinion.
7. I said, Days should speak, And multitude of years should teach wisdom.
8. But there is a spirit in man, And the breath of the Almighty giveth them understanding.
9. It is not the great that are wise, Nor the aged that understand justice.
10. Therefore I said, Hearken to me; I also will show mine opinion.
11. Behold, I waited for your words, I listened for your reasonings, Whilst ye searched out what to say.
12. Yea, I attended unto you, And, behold, there was none that convinced Job, Or that answered his words, among you.
13. Beware lest ye say, We have found wisdom; God may vanquish him, not man:
14. For he hath not directed his words against me; Neither will I answer him with your speeches.
15. They are amazed, they answer no more: They have not a word to say.
16. And shall I wait, because they speak not, Because they stand still, and answer no more?
17. I also will answer my part, I also will show mine opinion.
18. For I am full of words; The spirit within me constraineth me.
19. Behold, my breast is as wine which hath no vent; Like new wine-skins it is ready to burst.
