Job 32
New International Version
Elihu
32 So these three men stopped answering Job,(A) because he was righteous in his own eyes.(B) 2 But Elihu son of Barakel the Buzite,(C) of the family of Ram, became very angry with Job for justifying himself(D) rather than God.(E) 3 He was also angry with the three friends,(F) because they had found no way to refute Job,(G) and yet had condemned him.[a](H) 4 Now Elihu had waited before speaking to Job because they were older than he.(I) 5 But when he saw that the three men had nothing more to say, his anger was aroused.
6 So Elihu son of Barakel the Buzite said:
“I am young in years,
    and you are old;(J)
that is why I was fearful,
    not daring to tell you what I know.
7 I thought, ‘Age should speak;
    advanced years should teach wisdom.’(K)
8 But it is the spirit[b](L) in a person,
    the breath of the Almighty,(M) that gives them understanding.(N)
9 It is not only the old[c] who are wise,(O)
    not only the aged(P) who understand what is right.(Q)
10 “Therefore I say: Listen to me;(R)
    I too will tell you what I know.(S)
11 I waited while you spoke,
    I listened to your reasoning;
while you were searching for words,
12     I gave you my full attention.
But not one of you has proved Job wrong;
    none of you has answered his arguments.(T)
13 Do not say, ‘We have found wisdom;(U)
    let God, not a man, refute(V) him.’
14 But Job has not marshaled his words against me,(W)
    and I will not answer him with your arguments.
15 “They are dismayed and have no more to say;
    words have failed them.(X)
16 Must I wait, now that they are silent,
    now that they stand there with no reply?
17 I too will have my say;
    I too will tell what I know.(Y)
18 For I am full of words,
    and the spirit(Z) within me compels me;(AA)
19 inside I am like bottled-up wine,
    like new wineskins ready to burst.(AB)
20 I must speak and find relief;
    I must open my lips and reply.(AC)
21 I will show no partiality,(AD)
    nor will I flatter anyone;(AE)
22 for if I were skilled in flattery,
    my Maker(AF) would soon take me away.(AG)
Jó 32

Eliú repreende Jó e os seus três amigos
32 Então, aqueles três homens cessaram de responder a Jó; porque era justo aos seus próprios olhos. 2 E acendeu-se a ira de Eliú, filho de Baraquel, o buzita, da família de Rão; contra Jó se acendeu a sua ira, porque se justificava a si mesmo, mais do que a Deus. 3 Também a sua ira se acendeu contra os seus três amigos; porque, não achando que responder, todavia, condenavam a Jó. 4 Eliú, porém, esperou para falar a Jó, porquanto tinham mais idade do que ele. 5 Vendo, pois, Eliú que já não havia resposta na boca daqueles três homens, a sua ira se acendeu.
6 E respondeu Eliú, filho de Baraquel, o buzita, e disse: Eu sou de menos idade, e vós sois idosos; arreceei-me e temi de vos declarar a minha opinião. 7 Dizia eu: Falem os dias, e a multidão dos anos ensine a sabedoria. 8 Na verdade, há um espírito no homem, e a inspiração do Todo-Poderoso os faz sábios. 9 Os grandes não são os sábios, nem os velhos entendem o que é reto. 10 Pelo que digo: Dai-me ouvidos, e também eu declararei a minha opinião.
11 Eis que aguardei as vossas palavras, e dei ouvidos às vossas considerações, até que buscásseis razões. 12 Atentando, pois, para vós, eis que nenhum de vós há que possa convencer a Jó, nem que responda às suas razões. 13 Pelo que não digais: Achamos a sabedoria, Deus o derribou, e não homem algum. 14 Ora, ele não dirigiu contra mim palavra alguma, nem lhe responderei com as vossas palavras.
15 Estais pasmados, não respondeis mais, faltam-vos as palavras. 16 Esperei, pois, mas não falais; porque já parastes, e não respondeis mais. 17 Também eu responderei pela minha parte; também eu declararei a minha opinião. 18 Porque estou cheio de palavras; o meu espírito me constrange. 19 Eis que o meu ventre é como o mosto, sem respiradouro, e virá a arrebentar como odres novos. 20 Falarei e respirarei; abrirei os meus lábios e responderei. 21 Queira Deus que eu não faça acepção de pessoas, nem use de lisonjas com o homem! 22 Porque não sei usar de lisonjas; em breve me levaria o meu Criador.
Job 32
King James Version
32 So these three men ceased to answer Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes.
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.
3 Also against his three friends was his wrath kindled, because they had found no answer, and yet had condemned Job.
4 Now Elihu had waited till Job had spoken, because they were elder than he.
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 shew 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 shew 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.
16 When I had waited, (for they spake not, but stood still, and answered no more;)
17 I said, I will answer also my part, I also will shew mine opinion.
18 For I am full of matter, the spirit within me constraineth me.
19 Behold, my belly is as wine which hath no vent; it is ready to burst like new bottles.
20 I will speak, that I may be refreshed: I will open my lips and answer.
21 Let me not, I pray you, accept any man's person, neither let me give flattering titles unto man.
22 For I know not to give flattering titles; in so doing my maker would soon take me away.
