Job 32:1-5

Evangelical Heritage Version

Elihu’s Monologues

32 These three men gave up trying to answer Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes.

² So Elihu son of Barakel, the Buzite from the clan of Ram, burned with anger. His anger burned against Job because Job had justified himself rather than God. ³ His anger also burned against his three companions, because they had no answer for Job, but they nevertheless had condemned him.

⁴ Up to this point, Elihu had held back, and he had not spoken to Job, because the others were older and more experienced than he was.

⁵ When Elihu saw that the three men had no ready answer, his anger burned.
