Elihu Asks Job to Hear and Respond
“However now, Job, please hear my speech,
And give ear to all my words.
2 Behold now, I open my mouth;
My tongue in my mouth speaks.
3 My words are from the uprightness of my heart,
And my lips speak knowledge sincerely.
4 The Spirit of God has made me,
And the breath of the Almighty gives me life.
5 Respond to me if you can;
Arrange yourselves before me, take your stand.
6 Behold, I belong to God like you;
I too have been formed out of the clay.
7 Behold, no dread of me should terrify you,
Nor should my pressure weigh heavily on you.
