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.

32 Aceşti trei oameni au încetat să-i mai răspundă lui Iov, pentru că el se considera drept. 2 Atunci Elihu, fiul lui Barachel din Buz, din familia lui Ram, s-a aprins de mânie. El s-a mâniat pentru că acesta se îndreptăţea pe sine înaintea lui Dumnezeu. 3 S-a aprins de mânie şi pe cei trei prieteni ai lui Iov pentru că aceştia nu mai găseau nimic de răspuns şi totuşi îl condamnau pe Iov.[a] 4 Elihu aşteptase să-i vorbească lui Iov la urmă, pentru că aceştia erau mai în vârstă decât el. 5 Dar, văzând că cei trei oameni nu mai au nimic de zis, s-a mâniat. 6 Elihu, fiul lui Barachel din Buz, i-a zis:
„Eu sunt tânăr,
iar voi sunteţi în vârstă;
de aceea m-am temut
şi n-am îndrăznit să vă spun ce ştiu.
7 Mi-am zis: «Să vorbească bătrâneţea,
anii cei mulţi să ne înveţe înţelepciunea!»
8 Dar există un duh[b] în om,
suflarea Celui Atotputernic, care-i dă pricepere.
9 Nu vârsta te face înţelept,
nu bătrâneţea te face să înţelegi ce e drept.
10 De aceea zic: «Ascultaţi-mă,
îmi voi spune şi eu părerea!»
11 Am aşteptat în timp ce vorbeaţi,
am ascultat cuvintele voastre înţelepte
în timp ce căutaţi ce să îi spuneţi.
12 V-am ascultat cu atenţie,
dar nici unul din voi n-a dovedit că Iov a greşit,
nici unul nu a răspuns cuvintelor lui.
13 Să nu spuneţi: «Am dat peste înţelepciune[c];
să-l confrunte Dumnezeu, nu un om.»
14 El nu şi-a îndreptat cuvintele împotriva mea
şi nu-i voi răspunde folosind cuvântările voastre.
15 Sunt uimiţi, nu mai au nimic de spus,
au rămas fără cuvinte.
16 Să aştept pentru că ei nu mai vorbesc,
pentru că stau acolo fără să răspundă?
17 Voi răspunde şi eu
şi îmi voi spune părerea.
18 Sunt plin de cuvinte,
duhul din mine nu-mi dă pace;
19 înăuntrul meu este ca un vin care n-are pe unde să iasă,
ca nişte burdufuri noi, gata să plesnească.
20 Voi vorbi ca să găsesc uşurare.
Îmi voi deschide gura şi voi răspunde.
21 Nu voi fi părtinitor,
nu voi linguşi pe nimeni.
22 Nici nu ştiu să linguşesc;
Făcătorul meu m-ar lua într-o clipă.

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)

Elihu Contradicts Job’s Friends
32 So these three men ceased answering Job, because he was (A)righteous in his own eyes. 2 Then the wrath of Elihu, the son of Barachel the (B)Buzite, of the family of Ram, was aroused against Job; his wrath was aroused because he (C)justified himself rather than God. 3 Also against his three friends his wrath was aroused, because they had found no answer, and yet had condemned Job.
4 Now because they were years older than he, Elihu had waited [a]to speak to Job. 5 When Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of these three men, his wrath was aroused.
6 So Elihu, the son of Barachel the Buzite, answered and said:
“I am (D)young in years, and you are very old;
Therefore I was afraid,
And dared not declare my opinion to you.
7 I said, [b]‘Age should speak,
And multitude of years should teach wisdom.’
8 But there is a spirit in man,
And (E)the breath of the Almighty gives him understanding.
9 (F)Great[c] men are not always wise,
Nor do the aged always understand justice.
10 “Therefore I say, ‘Listen to me,
I also will declare my opinion.’
11 Indeed I waited for your words,
I listened to your reasonings, while you searched out what to say.
12 I paid close attention to you;
And surely not one of you convinced Job,
Or answered his words—
13 (G)Lest you say,
‘We have found wisdom’;
God will vanquish him, not man.
14 Now he has not [d]directed his words against me;
So I will not answer him with your words.
15 “They are dismayed and answer no more;
Words escape them.
16 And I have waited, because they did not speak,
Because they stood still and answered no more.
17 I also will answer my part,
I too will declare my opinion.
18 For I am full of words;
The spirit within me compels me.
19 Indeed my [e]belly is like wine that has no [f]vent;
It is ready to burst like new wineskins.
20 I will speak, that I may find relief;
I must open my lips and answer.
21 Let me not, I pray, show partiality to anyone;
Nor let me flatter any man.
22 For I do not know how to flatter,
Else my Maker would soon take me (H)away.

Elihu geeft zijn mening
32 De drie mannen wilden Job geen antwoord meer geven, omdat hij bleef volhouden dat hij onschuldig was. 2 Toen werd Elihu, de zoon van de Buziet Baracheël uit de familie van Ram, kwaad omdat Job volhield dat hij onschuldig was tegenover God. 3 Maar hij was ook boos op de drie vrienden van Job die hem wel hadden veroordeeld, maar zijn argumenten niet konden weerleggen. 4 Elihu had nog niets gezegd omdat de drie anderen ouder waren dan hij.
5 Maar toen hij zag dat zij geen antwoord meer wisten te geven, nam hij met een boos gezicht het woord en zei:
6 ‘Ik ben jong en u bent oud, daarom heb ik mij stilgehouden en heb ik u niet durven zeggen wat ik ervan denk.
7 Want ik dacht: laat de ouderen eerst aan het woord, zij zullen zeker ook wijzer zijn.
8,9 Maar als het om wijsheid gaat, telt niet alleen de leeftijd mee. Het gaat eerder om de geest van de mens, de adem van de Almachtige. Hij geeft hem immers inzicht?
10 Luister daarom naar mij, ik wil u ook mijn mening geven.
11,12 Ik heb een tijdje gewacht en ondertussen geluisterd naar wat u te zeggen had, maar geen van uw argumenten heeft Job ervan overtuigd dat hij een zondaar is.
13 En zeg nu niet dat alleen God en niet de mens hem van zijn zonde kan overtuigen.
14 Job heeft met mij niet geredetwist en ik wil uw argumenten laten voor wat zij zijn.
15 U zit daar volkomen perplex en weet geen antwoord meer.
16 Moet ik mij dan stil blijven houden als u er het zwijgen toe doet?
17 Nee, ook ik zal mijn mening geven.
18 Ik kan mij namelijk nauwelijks meer stilhouden, mijn geest spoort me aan om te spreken.
19 Ik voel mij als een wijnzak zonder aftapkraan die bijna op barsten staat.
20 Ik moet mijn hart luchten, dus laat ik mijn antwoorden geven.
21,22 Ik zal proberen voor niemand partij te kiezen, ik zal ook niemand vleien, want als ik dat zou doen, zou God mijn Schepper mij zonder meer wegvagen.’
