Job 32:6-9

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁶So Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite ^[a]spoke out and said,

“I am young in years and you are ^(A)old;
Therefore I was shy and afraid to tell you ^[b]what I think.
⁷“I ^[c]thought ^[d]^(B)age should speak,
And ^[e]increased years should teach wisdom.
⁸“But it is a spirit in man,
And the ^(C)breath of the Almighty gives them ^(D)understanding.
⁹“The ^[f]abundant in years may not be wise,
Nor may ^(E)elders understand justice.
