5 When Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of these three men, then his wrath was kindled.
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 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 inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding.
9 Great men are not always wise; neither do the aged understand judgment.
10 Therefore I said, Hearken to me; I also will show mine opinion.
11 Behold, I waited for your words; I gave ear to your reasons, whilst ye searched out what to say.
12 Yea, I attended unto you, and behold, there was none of you that convinced Job, or that answered his words;
13 Lest ye should say, We have found out wisdom; God thrusteth him down, not man.
14 Now he hath not directed his words against me; neither will I answer him with your speeches.
15 They were amazed, they answered no more; they left off speaking.
