31 Mark well, O Job, hearken unto me; hold thy peace, and I will speak.

32 If thou hast any thing to say, answer me; speak, for I desire to justify thee.

33 If not, hearken unto me; hold thy peace, and I shall teach thee wisdom.”

34 Furthermore, Elihu answered and said:

“Hear my words, O ye wise men; and give ear unto me, ye that have knowledge.

For the ear trieth words, as the mouth tasteth meat.

Let us choose for us judgment; let us know among ourselves what is good.

For the ear trieth words,
As the palate tasteth food.
Let us choose for us that which is right:
Let us know among ourselves what is good.
