32 If you have anything to say,[a] answer me;[b]

33 If not, you listen to me;
be silent, and I will teach you wisdom.”

34 Thus[d] Elihu spoke up[e] and said,

2 “Hear my words, you wise men,
and listen to me, you who know,
3 for the ear tests words,

4 Let us choose justice for ourselves;
let us determine among ourselves what is good—
