6 and began to speak.I am young, and you are old,so I was afraid to tell you what I think.
7 I told myself that you ought to speak,that you older men should share your wisdom.
8 But it is the Spirit of Almighty Godthat comes to human beings and gives them wisdom.
9 It is not growing old that makes people wiseor helps them to know what is right.
10 So now I want you to listen to me;let me tell you what I think.
11 I listened patiently while you were speakingand waited while you searched for wise phrases.
12 I paid close attention and heard you fail;you have not disproved what Job has said.
