12. Now I was paying you close attention,yet there was no one proving Job wrong,not one of you was answering his statements!
13. So do not say, ‘We have found wisdom!God will refute him, not man!’
14. Job has not directed his words to me,and so I will not reply to him with your arguments.
15. “They are dismayed and cannot answer any more;they have nothing left to say.
16. And I have waited. But because they do not speak,because they stand there and answer no more,
17. I too will answer my part,I too will explain what I know.
18. For I am full of words,and the spirit within me constrains me.
19. Inside I am like wine which has no outlet,like new wineskins ready to burst!
