Job 32:8-1964 ·Bible in Basic English

“But truly it is the spirit in man, even the breath of the Ruler of all, which gives them knowledge. It is not the old who are wise, and those who are full of years have not the knowledge of what is right. So I say, Give ear to me, and I will put forward my knowledge. I was waiting for your words, I was giving ear to your wise sayings; while you were searching out what to say, I was taking note; and truly not one of you was able to make clear Job's error, or to give an answer to his words. Take care that you do not say, Wisdom is here; God may overcome him, but not man. I will not put forward words like these, or make use of your sayings in answer to him. Fear has overcome them, they have no more answers to give; they have come to an end of words. And am I to go on waiting while they have nothing to say? while they keep quiet and give no more answers? I will give my answer; I will put forward my knowledge: For I am full of words, I am unable to keep in my breath any longer: My stomach is like wine which is unable to get out; like skins full of new wine, it is almost burst. Let me say what is in my mind, so that I may get comfort; let me give answer with open mouth. Let me not give respect to any man, or give names of honour to any living. For I am not able to give names of honour to any man; and if I did, my Maker would quickly take me away.”
