10 Therefore I said, ‘Listen to me;
    I also will show my opinion.’

11 “Behold, I waited for your words,
    and I listened for your reasoning,
    while you searched out what to say.
12 Yes, I gave you my full attention,
    but there was no one who convinced Job,
    or who answered his words, among you.

    God may refute him, not man;’
14 for he has not directed his words against me;
    neither will I answer him with your speeches.

and, look, there is no one for Job who refuted,
answering his words among you.
13 So do not say, ‘We have found wisdom;
let God refute him, not a man.’
14 But[e] he did not direct his words[f] to me,
and I will not answer him with your[g] words.
