5 When Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of these three men, his wrath was kindled.
6 Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered, "I am young, and you are very old; Therefore I held back, and didn`t dare show you my opinion.
7 I said, `Days should speak, And multitude of years should teach wisdom.`
8 But there is a spirit in man, And the breath of the Almighty gives them understanding.
9 It is not the great who are wise, Nor the aged who understand justice.
10 Therefore I said, `Listen to me; I also will show my opinion.`
11 "Behold, I waited for your words, And I listened for your reasoning, While you searched out what to say.
