Job 32:6 - The Message

This is what Elihu, son of Barakel the Buzite, said:   "I’m a young man,
   and you are all old and experienced.
That’s why I kept quiet
   and held back from joining the discussion.
I kept thinking, ’Experience will tell.
   The longer you live, the wiser you become.’
But I see I was wrong—it’s God’s Spirit in a person,
   the breath of the Almighty One, that makes wise human insight possible.
The experts have no corner on wisdom;
   getting old doesn’t guarantee good sense.
So I’ve decided to speak up. Listen well!
   I’m going to tell you exactly what I think.
