11. Lo, I waited for your words; I gave ear to your reasonings, until ye searched out what to say.
12. Yea, I gave you mine attention, and behold, there was none of you that confuted Job, that answered his words;
13. That ye may not say, We have found out wisdom; ·God will make him yield, not man.
14. Now he hath not directed his words against me; and I will not answer him with your speeches. ...
15. They were amazed, they answered no more; words failed them.
16. And I waited, for they spoke not, but stood still, and answered no more; --
17. I will answer, I also in my turn, I also will shew what I know:
18. For I am full of matter, the spirit within me constraineth me.
19. Behold, my belly is as wine which hath no vent; like new flasks, it is ready to burst.
20. I will speak, that I may find relief; I will open my lips and answer.
21. Let me not, I pray you, accept any man's person; neither will I give flattery to man.
22. For I know not how to flatter; my Maker would soon take me away.
