7. I said to myself, ‘Age should speak,and length of years should make wisdom known.’
8. But it is a spirit in people,the breath of the Almighty,that makes them understand.
9. It is not the aged who are wise,nor old men who understand what is right.
10. Therefore I say, ‘Listen to me.I, even I, will explain what I know.’
11. Look, I waited for you to speak;I listened closely to your wise thoughts,while you were searching for words.
12. Now I was paying you close attention,yet there was no one proving Job wrong,not one of you was answering his statements!
13. So do not say, ‘We have found wisdom!God will refute him, not man!’
