³¹ Job, take heed, and hear thou me, and be thou still, while I speak (and listen to me, while I speak).

³² But if thou hast ready what thou shalt speak, answer thou to me, speak; for I will, that thou appear just (for I desire, that thou be justified, or proven right).

³³ That if thou hast not, hear thou me (But if thou hast not, listen thou to me); be thou still, and I shall teach thee wisdom.

34 And so Elihu pronounced, and spake also these things, (and said,)

² Wise men, hear ye my words, and learned men, harken ye (to) me;

³ for the ear proveth words, and the throat deemeth meat by taste (and the tongue judgeth food by taste).

⁴ Choose we doom to us (Let us use judgement); and see we among us, what is the better.
