Job 32,3

Job
Anger

1 Så sluttet de tre mennene å svare Job, for han var rettferdig i egne øyne.

2 Men Elihu, sønn av Barakel fra Bus, av Rams slekt, ble harm på Job fordi han rettferdiggjorde seg selv fremfor Gud.

Hans vrede ble også tent mot de tre vennene, fordi de ikke hadde funnet noe svar til å motsi Job, men likevel hadde fordømt ham.

4 Elihu hadde holdt seg tilbake fra å tale til Job fordi de var eldre enn han.

5 Men da Elihu så at de tre mennene ikke hadde flere svar, ble hans vrede tent.
