Job 33:31-34:4
World English Bible
31 Mark well, Job, and listen to me.
Hold your peace, and I will speak.
32 If you have anything to say, answer me.
Speak, for I desire to justify you.
33 If not, listen to me.
Hold your peace, and I will teach you wisdom.”
34 Moreover Elihu answered,
2 “Hear my words, you wise men.
Give ear to me, you who have knowledge.
3 For the ear tries words,
as the palate tastes food.
4 Let us choose for us that which is right.
Let us know among ourselves what is good.
Job 33:31-34:4

34 Elihu further answered and said:
2 “Hear my words, you wise men;
Give ear to me, you who have knowledge.

As the palate tastes food.
4 Let us choose justice for ourselves;
Let us know among ourselves what is good.
