31 Pay attention, Job. Listen to me.
Be silent, so that I may speak.
32 If you have anything to say, answer me.
Speak up, for I would be delighted to declare you innocent.
33 If you have nothing to say, listen to me
Be silent, so I may teach you wisdom.

34 Elihu resumed[a] his speech and said:

Hear my words, you wise men.
You learned men, pay attention to me.
It is true that the ear tests words as the mouth tastes food.
So now we should choose for ourselves what is just.
We should determine among ourselves what is good.
