NASB Bible (with Strong's Numbers)

Job 32

Elihu in Anger Rebukes Job

1

Then theseh428 threeh7969 menh376 ceasedh7673a answeringh6030a Jobh347, becauseh3588 he was  arighteoush6662 in his own eyesh5869.

2

But the angerh639 of Elihuh453 the sonh1121 of Barachelh1292 the  aBuziteh940, of the familyh4940 of Ramh7410 burnedh2734; against Jobh347 his angerh639 burnedh2734  bbecauseh5921 he justifiedh6663 himselfh5315  1 cbeforeh4480 Godh430.

3

And his angerh639 burnedh2734 against his threeh7969 friendsh7453 becauseh5921h834 they had foundh4672 noh3808 answerh4617, and yet had condemnedh7561 Jobh347.

4

Now Elihuh453 had waitedh2442  1to speakh1697 to Jobh347 becauseh3588 they were yearsh3117 olderh2205 thanh4480 he.

5

And when Elihuh453 sawh7200 that thereh369 was noh369 answerh4617 in the mouthh6310 of the threeh7969 menh376 his angerh639 burnedh2734.

6

So Elihuh453 the sonh1121 of Barachelh1292 the Buziteh940  1spokeh6030a out and saidh559, "I am youngh6810 in yearsh3117 and you are  aoldh3453; Thereforeh5921h3651 I was shyh2119b and afraidh3372a to tellh2331a you  2whath1843 I thinkh1843.

7

"I  1thoughth559  2 aageh3117 should speakh1696, And  3increasedh7230 yearsh8141 should teachh3045 wisdomh2451.

8

"But it is a spirith7307 in manh582, And the  abreathh5397 of the Almightyh7706b givesh995 them  bunderstandingh995.

9

"The  1abundanth7227a in years may not be wiseh2449, Norh3808 may  aeldersh2205 understandh995 justiceh4941.

10

"Soh3651 I  1sayh559, `Listenh8085 to me, I tooh637 will tellh2331a  2whath1843 I thinkh1843.'

11

"Beholdh2005, I waitedh3176 for your wordsh1697, I listenedh238 to your reasoningsh8394, Whileh5704 you  1ponderedh2713 whath4405 to sayh4405.

12

"I even paidh995 closeh995 attentionh995 to you;  1Indeedh2009, thereh369 was noh369 oneh369 who refutedh3198 Jobh347, Not one of you who answeredh6030a his wordsh561.

13

"Do not sayh559, ` aWe have foundh4672 wisdomh2451; Godh410 will  1routh5086 him, not manh376.'

14

"For he has not arrangedh6186a his wordsh4405 againsth413 me, Norh3808 will I replyh7725 to him with your  1argumentsh561.

15

"They are dismayedh2865, they noh3808 longerh5750 answerh6030a; Wordsh4405 have  1failedh6275 them.

16

"Shall I waith3176, becauseh3588 they do not speakh1696, Becauseh3588 they  1stoph5975 and noh3808 longerh5750 answerh6030a?

17

"I tooh637 will answerh6030a my shareh2506, I alsoh637 will tellh2331a my opinionh1843.

18

"For I am fullh4390 of wordsh4405; The spirith7307 withinh990 me constrainsh6693 me.

19

"Beholdh2009, my bellyh990 is like unventedh3808h6605a wineh3196, Like newh2319 wineskinsh178 it is about to bursth1234.

20

"Let me speakh1696 that I may geth7304 reliefh7304; Let me openh6605a my lipsh8193 and answerh6030a.

21

"Let me nowh4994  abe partialh5375h6440 to noh408 oneh376, Norh3808 flatterh3655 any manh120.

22

"For I do not knowh3045 how to flatterh3655, Else my Makerh6213a would soonh4592 takeh5375 me away.
