1Kui need kolm meest loobusid Iiobile vastamast, sellepärast et ta oma silmis õige oli,
1And these three men ceased to answer Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes.
2siis süttis põlema buuslase Eliihu, Baarakeli poja viha; ta oli Raami suguvõsast. Ja ta viha süttis põlema Iiobi vastu, sellepärast et too pidas ennast Jumalast õigemaks.
2Then was kindled the anger of Elihu the son of Barachel, the Buzite, of the family of Ram: against Job was his anger kindled, because he justified himself rather than God;
3Ta viha süttis põlema ka tema kolme sõbra vastu, sellepärast et need ei olnud leidnud vastust, millega nad oleksid saanud Iiobi süüdi mõista.
3and against his three friends was his anger kindled, because they found no answer, and [yet] condemned Job.
4Eliihu oli oodanud, kuni nad Iiobiga rääkisid, sest nad olid temast vanemad.
4But Elihu had waited till Job had finished speaking, because they were older than he.
5Aga kui Eliihu nägi, et nende kolme mehe suus ei olnud vastust, siis ta viha süttis põlema.
5And Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of the three men, and his anger was kindled.
6Ja buuslane Eliihu, Baarakeli poeg, rääkis ning ütles: 'Mina olen ealt noorim, aga teie olete elatanud, sellepärast ma olin tagasihoidlik ja kartsin teile kuulutada oma arvamust.
6And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said, I am young, and ye are aged; wherefore I was timid, and feared to shew you what I know.
7Ma mõtlesin: Kõnelgu päevad ja aastate rohkus õpetagu tarkust.
7I said, Let days speak, and multitude of years teach wisdom.
8Tõesti, inimeste sees olev vaim, Kõigevägevama hingeõhk annab neile arukuse.
8But there is a spirit which is in man; and the breath of the Almighty giveth them understanding.
9Ei ole eakad mitte alati targemad ega mõista üksnes vanad, mis on õige.
9It is not the great that are wise; neither do the aged understand judgment.
10Seepärast ma ütlen: Kuule mind, minagi tahan kuulutada oma arvamust.
10Therefore I say, Hearken to me; I also will shew what I know.
11Vaata, ma ootasin, mis teil on öelda, ma kuulatasin teie tarkust, siis kui te otsisite sõnu.
11Lo, I waited for your words; I gave ear to your reasonings, until ye searched out what to say.
12Ma panin siis teid tähele, ja vaata, ükski teist ei kutsunud Iiobit korrale, ükski ei vastanud tema sõnadele.
12Yea, I gave you mine attention, and behold, there was none of you that confuted Job, that answered his words;
13Ärge seepärast mõtelge: 'Meie oleme leidnud tarkuse.' Jumal ajab ta minema, mitte inimene.
13That ye may not say, We have found out wisdom; ùGod will make him yield, not man.
14Minu vastu ei ole ta oma sõnu seadnud ja teie sõnadega ei taha ma temale vastata.
14Now he hath not directed [his] words against me; and I will not answer him with your speeches. ...
15Nad on ehmunud, nad ei vasta enam, neil on sõnad lõppenud.
15They were amazed, they answered no more; words failed them.
16Kas pean ootama, sellepärast et nad ei räägi, et nad seisavad siin ega vasta enam?
16And I waited, for they spoke not, but stood still, and answered no more; --
17Ma tahan anda vastuseks omaltki poolt osa, ma tahan kuulutada ka oma arvamust.
17I will answer, I also in my turn, I also will shew what I know:
18Sest ma olen täis sõnu, vaim mu sees sunnib mind.
18For I am full of matter, the spirit within me constraineth me.
19Vaata, mu sees on nagu vein, millel puudub väljapääs: otsekui uus nahkastja on see lõhkemas.
19Behold, my belly is as wine which hath no vent; like new flasks, it is ready to burst.
20Ma pean rääkima, et saada enesele õhku, pean avama huuled ja vastama.
20I will speak, that I may find relief; I will open my lips and answer.
21Ma ei taha nüüd olla erapoolik ega kedagi meelitada.
21Let me not, I pray you, accept any man's person; neither will I give flattery to man.
22Sest ma ei või meelitada: kui kergesti võiks mu Looja mind siis ära võtta.
22For I know not how to flatter; my Maker would soon take me away.
