15 Job’s friends are dismayed and can no longer answer;
words have left them.
16 Should I continue to wait now that they are silent,
now that they stand there and no longer answer?
17 I too will answer;[a]
yes, I will tell what I know.
18 For I am full of words,
and my spirit[b] compels me to speak.(A)
19 My heart[c] is like unvented wine;
it is about to burst like new wineskins.(B)
20 I must speak so that I can find relief;
I must open my lips and respond.
21 I will be partial to no one,(C)
and I will not give anyone an undeserved title.
22 For I do not know how to give such titles;
otherwise, my Maker would remove me in an instant.
