OET (OET-RV) If you have words, answer me then.
⇔ Speak up because I’d like to hear that you’re innocent.

אִם
if
Since Elihu told Job in the previous verse to listen and be silent, when he tells him in this verse to speak and answer, he implicitly means that Job should do this only after listening to him. You could indicate this in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “Then if”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
יֵשׁ־מִלִּ֥ין
have anything_to_say
Elihu is using the term words to mean what Job would say by using words. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “you have something to say”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
חָפַ֥צְתִּי צַדְּקֶֽךָּ
desire justify,you
Elihu seems to mean that he desires to show that Job has been right in saying that God is not punishing him for committing sin. Elihu has been suggesting that Job’s sufferings are instead a warning from God not to take a sinful course of action. You could indicate that explicitly in your translation if it would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “I am trying to show that you have been right in saying that God is not punishing you for committing sin”
33:32 For Elihu to say that he was anxious to see Job justified sounds ironic; he had entered the discussion in the first place “because Job refused to admit that he had sinned” (32:1-5).

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
