1Job's three friends now fell silent. They were talked out, stymied because Job wouldn't budge an inch—wouldn't admit to an ounce of guilt.
AMP
1So these three men ceased answering Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes .
MSG
2Then Elihu lost his temper. (Elihu was the son of Barakel the Buzite from the clan of Ram.) He blazed out in anger against Job for pitting his righteousness against God's.
AMP
2But Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the family of Ram, became indignant. His indignation was kindled and burned and he became upset with Job because he justified himself rather than God .
MSG
3He was also angry with the three friends because they had neither come up with an answer nor proved Job wrong.
AMP
3Elihu's anger burned against Job's three friends because they had found no answer , and yet they had condemned Job and declared him to be in the wrong .

6This is what Elihu, son of Barakel the Buzite, said:"I'm a young man,and you are all old and experienced.That's why I kept quietand held back from joining the discussion.
AMP
6Then Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite said, "I am young, and you are aged; For that reason I was anxious and dared not tell you what I think.
MSG
7I kept thinking, 'Experience will tell.The longer you live, the wiser you become.'
AMP
7"I thought age should speak, And a multitude of years should teach wisdom.
MSG
8But I see I was wrong—it's God's Spirit in a person,the breath of the Almighty One, that makes wise humaninsight possible.
AMP
8"But there is a spirit in man, And the breath of the Almighty gives them understanding.

MSG
12I was all ears.And now what have you proved? Nothing.Nothing you say has even touched Job.
AMP

AMP

MSG
16Why should I wait any longer,now that you're stopped dead in your tracks?
AMP
16"And shall I wait, because they say nothing, But stand still and say no more?
MSG
