5 When Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of these three men, then his wrath was aroused.
6 Elihu the son of Barakel the Buzite answered: “I am young,and you are very old;therefore I was afraidand dared not show you my opinion.
7 I said, ‘Age should speak,and multitude of years should teach wisdom.’
8 But there is a spirit in man,and the breath of the Almighty gives him understanding.
9 Great men are not always wise,nor do the aged always understand judgment.
10 “Therefore I say,‘Listen to me; I will also declare my opinion.’
11 Indeed, I waited for your words;I listened to your reasons,while you searched out what to say.
