Now Elihu had waited before speaking to Job, because the others were older than he was.
With Job’s three friends he was also angry, because they could not find an answer, and so declared Job guilty.
But when Elihu saw that the three men had no further reply, he became very angry.
The one who gives an answer before he listens – that is his folly and his shame.
A time to rip, and a time to sew; a time to keep silent, and a time to speak.
You must stand up in the presence of the aged, honor the presence of an elder, and fear your God. I am the Lord.
