6 So here’s what Elihu son of Barakel the Buzite said: “I am only a young man, and you are all older. That is why I was afraid to tell you what I think.
7 I thought to myself, ‘Older people should speak first. They have lived many years, so they have learned many things.’
8 But it is the spirit in people, the breath from God All-Powerful, that makes them understand.
9 Old men are not the only wise people. They are not the only ones who understand what is right.
10 “So please listen to me, and I will tell you what I think.
11 I waited patiently while you men talked. I listened to the answers you gave as you searched for the right words.
12 I listened carefully to what you said. Not one of you proved Job wrong. Not one of you answered his arguments.
