וֶֽאֱלִיהוּ חִכָּה אֶת־אִיּוֹב בִּדְבָרִים כִּי זְֽקֵנִים־הֵמָּה מִמֶּנּוּ לְיָמִֽים
Now Elihu had waited to speak unto Job, because they were older than he.
וַיַּרְא אֱלִיהוּא כִּי אֵין מַעֲנֶה בְּפִי שְׁלֹשֶׁת הָאֲנָשִׁים וַיִּחַר אַפּֽוֹ
And when Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of these three men, his wrath was kindled.
וַיַּעַן אֱלִיהוּא בֶן־בַּֽרַכְאֵל הַבּוּזִי וַיֹּאמַר צָעִיר אֲנִי לְיָמִים וְאַתֶּם יְשִׁישִׁים עַל־כֵּן זָחַלְתִּי וָֽאִירָא מֵחַוֺּת דֵּעִי אֶתְכֶֽם
And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said: I am young, and ye are very old; Wherefore I held back, and durst not declare you mine opinion.
אָמַרְתִּי יָמִים יְדַבֵּרוּ וְרֹב שָׁנִים יֹדִיעוּ חָכְמָֽה
I said: ‘Days should speak, And multitude of years should teach wisdom.’
אָכֵן רֽוּחַ־הִיא בֶאֱנוֹשׁ וְנִשְׁמַת שַׁדַּי תְּבִינֵֽם
But it is a spirit in man, And the breath of the Almighty, that giveth them understanding.
