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

H · G · S |
