Job 32:9

7 I said, Days should speak, and multitude of years should teach wisdom.

8 But there is a spirit in man: and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding.

Great men are not always wise: neither do the aged understand judgment.

10 Therefore I said, Hearken to me; I also will shew mine opinion.

11 Behold, I waited for your words; I gave ear to your reasons, whilst ye searched out what to say.

Her forteller Bibelen en historie om noen andre. Spør deg selv hva den kan si oss i dag. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
