        Job 32
      
    </p>

<p>

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