Behold, I waited for your words; I gave ear to your reasons, whilst ye searched out what to say.
Unto me men gave ear, and waited, and kept silence at my counsel.
And they waited for me as for the rain; and they opened their mouth wide as for the latter rain.
Therefore I said, Hearken to me; I also will show mine opinion.
Yea, I attended unto you, and, behold, there was none of you that convinced Job, or that answered his words:
Now Eli´hu had waited till Job had spoken, because they were elder than he.
Lo this, we have searched it, so it is; hear it, and know thou it for thy good.
He that is first in his own cause seemeth just; but his neighbor cometh and searcheth him.
The rich man is wise in his own conceit; but the poor that hath understanding searcheth him out.
