Job 32:15-22

New Living Translation

¹⁵ You sit there baffled,
    with nothing more to say.
¹⁶ Should I continue to wait, now that you are silent?
    Must I also remain silent?
¹⁷ No, I will say my piece.
    I will speak my mind.
¹⁸ For I am full of pent-up words,
    and the spirit within me urges me on.
¹⁹ I am like a cask of wine without a vent,
    like a new wineskin ready to burst!
²⁰ I must speak to find relief,
    so let me give my answers.
²¹ I won’t play favorites
    or try to flatter anyone.
²² For if I tried flattery,
    my Creator would soon destroy me.
