Why does it have strange spelling?
CHAP. XXXII.
1 Elihu is angry with Iob and his three friends. 6 Because wisedome cometh not from age, he excuseth the boldnesse of his youth. 11 He reprooueth them for not satisfying of Iob. 16 His zeale to speake.
1 So these three men ceased to answere Iob, because he was righteous in his owne eyes.1
2 Then was kindled the wrath of Elihu, the sonne of Barachel the Buzite, of the kinred of Ram: against Iob was his wrath kindled, because he iustified himselfe rather then God.2
4 Now Elihu had waited till Iob had spoken: because they were elder then he.4
6 And Elihu the sonne of Barachel the Buzite answered and sayd: I am yong, and yee are very old, wherefore I was afraid, and durst not shew you mine opinion.6
7 I said, Dayes should speake, and multitude of yeeres should teach wisedome.
8 But there is a spirit in man: and the inspiration of the Almightie giueth them vnderstanding.8
9 Great men are not alwayes wise: neither doe the aged vnderstand iudgement.
10 Therfore I sayd, Hearken to me: I also will shew mine opinion.
11 Behold, I waited for your words: I gaue eare to your reasons, whilest you searched out what to say.11
13 Lest ye should say, We haue found out wisdom: God thrusteth him down, not man.
14 Now he hath not directed his words against me: neither will I answere him with your speeches.14
15 They were amased, they answered no more, they left off speaking.15
16 When I had waited, (for they spake not, but stood still and answered no more.)
17 I sayd, I will answere also my part, I also will shew mine opinion.
18 For I am full of matter, the spirit within me constraineth me.18
19 Behold, my belly is as wine, which hath no vent, it is ready to burst like new bottles.19
20 I will speake, that I may be refreshed: I will open my lippes, and answere.20
21 Let me not, I pray you, accept any mans person: neither let me giue flattering titles vnto man.
22 For I know not to giue flattering titles: in so doing my maker would soone take me away.
