Job 32:6

BarakelElihu
Ungdom og oppvekstFrykt

4 Now Elihu had waited to speak to Job because the others were older than he.

5 But when he saw that the three men had no further reply, his anger was kindled.

So Elihu son of Barachel the Buzite declared: “I am young in years, while you are old; that is why I was timid and afraid to tell you what I know.

7 I thought that age should speak, and many years should teach wisdom.

8 But there is a spirit in a man, the breath of the Almighty, that gives him understanding.
