Job 32:6-9
Legacy Standard Bible
6 So Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said,
“I am young in years and you are (A)old;
Therefore I was shy and afraid to tell you my knowledge.
7 I [a]thought [b](B)age should speak,
And [c]increased years should make wisdom known.
8 But it is a spirit in man,
And the (C)breath of the Almighty gives them (D)understanding.
9 The [d]abundant in years may not be wise,
Nor may (E)elders understand justice.
Job 32:6-9
American Standard Version
6 And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said,
I am young, and ye are very old;
Wherefore I held back, and durst not show 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 breath of the Almighty giveth them understanding.
9 It is not the great that are wise,
Nor the aged that understand justice.
