Job 32:9–13 · Berean Standard Bible

9 It is not only the old who are wise, or the elderly who understand justice.

10 Therefore I say, ‘Listen to me; I too will declare what I know.’

11 Indeed, I waited while you spoke; I listened to your reasoning; as you searched for words,

12 I paid you full attention. But no one proved Job wrong; not one of you rebutted his arguments.

13 So do not claim, ‘We have found wisdom; let God, not man, refute him.’
