Job 32

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition	Peshitta
1 So these three men ceased to answer Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes.	1 ܘܫܠܝܘ ܗܠܝܢ ܬܠܬܐ ܓܒܪ̈ܝܢ ܕܒܥܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܡܚܝܒܘܬܗ ܠܐܝܘܒ ܡܛܠ ܕܗܘ ܗܘܐ ܙܕܝܩ ܒܥܝܢ̈ܝܗܘܢ
2 Then Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the family of Ram, became angry. He was angry at Job because he justified himself rather than God;	2 ܘܐܬܚܡܬ ܐܠܝܗܘ ܒܪ ܒܪܟܝܐܝܠ ܒܘܙܝܐ ܡܢ ܫܪܒܬܐ ܕܪܡܘ ܐܬܚܡܬ ܪܘܓܙܗ ܥܠ ܐܝܘܒ ܥܠ ܕܙܕܩ ܢܦܫܗ ܛܒ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ
3 he was angry also at Job's three friends because they had found no answer, although they had declared Job to be in the wrong.	3 ܘܐܬܚܡܬ ܥܠ ܬܠܬܐ ܚܒܪ̈ܘܗܝ ܥܠ ܕܠܐ ܐܫܟܚܘ ܕܢܬܠܘܢ ܠܗ ܦܬܓܡܐ ܠܐܝܘܒ ܘܢܚܝܒܘܢܗ
4 Now Elihu had waited to speak to Job because they were older than he.	4 ܘܐܠܝܗܘ ܡܟܘܢ ܗܘܐ ܠܗ ܠܐܝܘܒ ܒܡ̈ܠܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܣܐ̈ܒܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܡܢܗ ܒܝ̈ܘܡܬܐ
5 And when Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of these three men, he became angry.	5 ܘܚܙܐ ܐܠܝܗܘ ܕܠܐ ܡܫܟܚܝܢ ܕܢܬܠܘܢ ܠܗ ܦܬܓܡܐ ܗܠܝܢ ܬܠܬܐ ܓܒܪ̈ܝܢ ܘܐܬܚܡܬ ܪܘܓܙܗ
6 And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered: "I am young in years, and you are aged; therefore I was timid and afraid to declare my opinion to you.	6 ܘܥܢܐ ܐܠܝܗܘ ܒܪ ܒܪܟܝܐܝܠ ܒܘܙܝܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܡܛܠ ܕܒܨܝܪ ܐܢܐ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܒܝܘܡ̈ܬܐ ܘܐܢܬܘܢ ܩܫܝ̈ܫܝܢ ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܕܚܠܬ ܘܙܥܬ ܠܡܚܘܝܘܬܟܘܢ ܝܕܥܬܝ
7 I said, 'Let days speak, and many years teach wisdom.'	7 ܐܢܐ ܓܝܪ ܐܡܪܬ ܕܝܘܡ̈ܬܐ ܗܘ ܡܡܠܠܝܢ ܘܣܘܓܐܐ ܕܫ̈ܢܝܐ ܡ̈ܠܦܢ ܚܟܡܬܐ
8 But it is the spirit in a man, the breath of the Almighty, that makes him understand.	8 ܫܪܝܪܐܝܬ ܪܘܚܐ ܐܝܬ ܒܒܪܢܫܐ ܘܢܫܡܬܗ ܗܘ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܡܒܝܢܐ ܠܗܘܢ
9 It is not the old that are wise, nor the aged that understand what is right.	9 ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܗܟܝܠ ܣܘܓܐܐ ܕܝܘܡ̈ܬܐ ܡܚܟܡܝܢ ܘܐܦ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܣܒ̈ܐ ܡܬܒܝܢܝܢ ܕܝܢܐ
10 Therefore I say, 'Listen to me; let me also declare my opinion.'	10 ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܐܡ̇ܪ ܐܢܐ ܫܘܡܥܘܢܝ ܘܐܦ ܐܢܐ ܐܚܘܝܟܘܢ ܝܕܥܬܝ
11 "Behold, I waited for your words, I listened for your wise sayings, while you searched out what to say.	11 ܗܐ ܫܬܩܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܘܠܡ̈ܠܝܟܘܢ ܘܨܬܬ ܥܕܡܐ ܕܛܠܩܬܘܢ ܘܒܨܝܬܟܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܒܡ̈ܠܐ
12 I gave you my attention, and, behold, there was none that confuted Job, or that answered his words, among you.	12 ܘܒܣ̈ܗܕܘܬܟܘܢ ܐܬܒܝܢܬ ܘܗܐ ܠܝܬ ܠܐܝܘܒ ܡܟܣܢܐ ܘܕܝܗܒ ܠܗ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܦܬܓܡܐ
13 Beware lest you say, 'We have found wisdom; God may vanquish him, not man.'	13 ܕܐܡܪ̈ܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܐܫܟܚܢ ܚܟܡܬܐ ܐܠܗܐ ܗܘ ܡܚܝܗܝ ܘܠܐ ܒܪ ܐܢܫܐ
14 He has not directed his words against me, and I will not answer him with your speeches.	14 ܠܐ ܐܡܪ ܠܘܩܒܠ ܡ̈ܠܐ ܘܒܡ̈ܠܝܟܘܢ ܠܐ ܡܬܪܡܐ ܐܢܐ ܠܗ
15 "They are discomfited, they answer no more; they have not a word to say.	15 ܫܬܩܘ ܘܬܘܒ ܠܐ ܥܢܐܘܗܝ ܐܦܪܩܘ ܡܢܗܘܢ ܡ̈ܠܐ ܘܫܬܩܘ
16 And shall I wait, because they do not speak, because they stand there, and answer no more?	16 ܡܛܠ ܕܠܐ ܡܡܠܠܝܢ ܡܛܘܠ ܕܩܡܘ ܘܬܘܒ ܠܐ ܥܢܐܘܗܝ
17 I also will give my answer; I also will declare my opinion.	17 ܐܥܢܐ ܐܦ ܐܢܐ ܡܠܬܝ ܘܐܚܘܐ ܐܦ ܐܢܐ ܝܕܥܬܝ
18 For I am full of words, the spirit within me constrains me.	18 ܡܛܠ ܕܐܬܡܠܝܬ ܡ̈ܠܐ ܘܐܬܢܣܟܬ ܪܘܚܐ ܒܟܪܣܝ
19 Behold, my heart is like wine that has no vent; like new wineskins, it is ready to burst.	19 ܗܐ ܟܪܣܝ ܟܝܒܐ ܘܠܐ ܡܬܦܬܚܐ ܘܐܝܟ ܐܒܐ ܒܝܪܚܐ ܡܬܦܪܬܐ
20 I must speak, that I may find relief; I must open my lips and answer.	20 ܐܡܠܠ ܘܢܪܘܚ ܠܝ ܐܦܬܚ ܣ̈ܦܘܬܝ ܘܐܬܠ ܦܬܓܡܐ
21 I will not show partiality to any person or use flattery toward any man.	21 ܠܐ ܐܣܒ ܒܐ̈ܦܝ ܐܢܫ ܘܡܢ ܐ̈ܦܝ ܐܢܫ ܠܐ ܐܒܗܬ
22 For I do not know how to flatter, else would my Maker soon put an end to me.	22 ܡܛܠ ܕܠܐ ܝ̇ܕܥ ܐܢܐ ܒܗܬܬܐ ܘܥܕ ܩܠܝܠ ܫ̇ܩܠ ܗܘܐ ܠܝ ܥܘܫܢܝ
