1 Thus Elihu spoke up and said,
2 “Hear my words, you wise men, and listen to me, you who know,
3 for the ear tests words, and the palate tastes food.
4 Let us choose justice for ourselves; let us determine among ourselves what is good—
5 for Job has said, ‘I am righteous, but God has taken away my justice.
6 Should I lie concerning my justice? Though I am without transgression, my wound caused by an arrow is incurable.’
