31 Pay attention, O Job, listen to me;
Keep silent, and I will speak.
32 Then if [a]you have any speech, respond to me;
Speak, for I desire to prove you righteous.
33 If not, (A)listen to me;
Keep silent, and I will teach you wisdom.”

Elihu Answers That God Will Be Just

34 Then Elihu answered and said,

“Hear my speech, you wise men,
And give ear to me, you who know.
For (B)the ear tests words
As the palate tastes food.
Let us choose for ourselves what is just;
Let us know among ourselves what is good.
