Job 32
- 1 So these three men ceased to answer Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes.
- 2 Then was kindled the wrath of Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the family of Ram: against Job was his wrath kindled, because he justified himself rather than God.
- 3 Also against his three friends was his wrath kindled, because they had found no answer, and yet had condemned Job.
- 4 Now Elihu had waited to speak unto Job, because they were elder than he.
- 5 And when Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of these three men, his wrath was kindled.
- 6 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 show you mine opinion.
- 7 I said, Days should speak, And multitude of years should teach wisdom.
- 8 But there is a spirit in man, And the breath of the Almighty giveth them understanding.
- 9 It is not the great that are wise, Nor the aged that understand justice.
- 10 Therefore I said, Hearken to me; I also will show mine opinion.
- 11 Behold, I waited for your words, I listened for your reasonings, Whilst ye searched out what to say.
- 12 Yea, I attended unto you, And, behold, there was none that convinced Job, Or that answered his words, among you.
- 13 Beware lest ye say, We have found wisdom; God may vanquish him, not man:
- 14 For he hath not directed his words against me; Neither will I answer him with your speeches.
- 15 They are amazed, they answer no more: They have not a word to say.
- 16 And shall I wait, because they speak not, Because they stand still, and answer no more?
- 17 I also will answer my part, I also will show mine opinion.
- 18 For I am full of words; The spirit within me constraineth me.
- 19 Behold, my breast is as wine which hath no vent; Like new wine-skins it is ready to burst.
- 20 I will speak, that I may be refreshed; I will open my lips and answer.
- 21 Let me not, I pray you, respect any man’s person; Neither will I give flattering titles unto any man.
- 22 For I know not to give flattering titles; Elsewould my Maker soon take me away.

American Standard Version (asv - 2)
2021-02-18English (en)
The American Standard Version (ASV) of the Holy Bible is in the Public Domain. Please feel free to copy it, give it away, memorize it, publish it, sell it, or whatever God leads you to do with it.
The American Standard Version of 1901 is an Americanization of the English Revised Bible, which is an update of the KJV to less archaic spelling and greater accuracy of translation. It has been called "The Rock of Biblical Honesty." It is the product of the work of over 50 Evangelical Christian scholars.
While the ASV retains many archaic word forms, it is still more understandable to the modern reader than the KJV in many passages. The ASV also forms the basis for several modern English translations, including the World English Bible (http://www.eBible.org/bible/WEB), which is also in the Public Domain. The ASV uses "Jehovah" for Godߴs proper name. While the current consensus is that this Holy Name was more likely pronounced "Yahweh," it is refreshing to see this rendition instead of the overloading of the word "Lord" that the KJV, NASB, and many others do.
Pronouns referring to God are not capitalized in the ASV, as they are not in the NIV and some others, breaking the tradition of the KJV. Since Hebrew has no such thing as tense, and the oldest Greek manuscripts are all upper case, anyway, this tradition was based only on English usage around 1600, anyway. Not capitalizing these pronouns solves some translational problems, such as the coronation psalms, which refer equally well to an earthly king and to God.- Encoding: UTF-8
