⁷ It was so, that after Yahweh had spoken these words to Job, Yahweh said to Eliphaz the Temanite, "My wrath is kindled against you, and against your two friends; for you have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job has.

¹¹ Now when Job's three friends heard of all this evil that had come on him, they each came from his own place: Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite, and they made an appointment together to come to sympathize with him and to comfort him.

¹ Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered,

¹ Then Bildad the Shuhite answered,

¹ Then Zophar, the Naamathite, answered,

⁵ But oh that God would speak, And open his lips against you,

⁶ That he would show you the secrets of wisdom! For true wisdom has two sides. Know therefore that God exacts of you less than your iniquity deserves.

² Then the wrath of Elihu the son of Barachel, the Buzite, of the family of Ram, was kindled against Job. His wrath was kindled because he justified himself rather than God.

³ Also his wrath was kindled against his three friends, because they had found no answer, and yet had condemned Job.

⁵ When Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of these three men, his wrath was kindled.

⁴ Against you, and you only, have I sinned, And done that which is evil in your sight; That you may be proved right when you speak, And justified when you judge.
