Job 32:5-10 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

5. But when Elihu saw that the three men had nothing more to say, he became very angry.

6. So Elihu son of Barakel the Buzite said this:“I am young,and you are old.That is why I was afraidto tell you what I know.

7. I thought, ‘Older people should speak.Those who have lived many years should teach wisdom.’

8. But it is the spirit in a person that gives him understanding.It is the breath of God All-Powerful in him.

9. It is not just older people who are wise.Older people are not the only ones who understand what is right.

10. So I say, listen to me!I will also tell you what I know.
