Job 32:15-22
New International Version
Job 32:15-22
New International Version
15 “They are dismayed and have no more to say;
words have failed them.(A)
16 Must I wait, now that they are silent,
now that they stand there with no reply?
17 I too will have my say;
I too will tell what I know.(B)
18 For I am full of words,
and the spirit(C) within me compels me;(D)
19 inside I am like bottled-up wine,
like new wineskins ready to burst.(E)
20 I must speak and find relief;
I must open my lips and reply.(F)
21 I will show no partiality,(G)
nor will I flatter anyone;(H)
22 for if I were skilled in flattery,
my Maker(I) would soon take me away.(J)

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
15 “They are dismayed; they answer no more;
they have not a word to say.
16 And am I to wait because they do not speak,
because they stand there and answer no more?
17 I also will give my answer;
I also will declare my opinion.
18 For I am full of words;
the spirit within me constrains me.(A)
19 My belly is indeed like wine that has no vent;
like new wineskins, it is ready to burst.(B)
20 I must speak, so that I may find relief;
I must open my lips and answer.
21 I will not show partiality to any person
or use flattery toward anyone.(C)
22 For I do not know how to flatter—
or my Maker would soon put an end to me!(D)
