If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of knowledge, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation, as in the UST: [without knowing what he is talking about]

(Some words not found in UHB: and,Job Abel opens mouth_of,his with,not_of knowledge words/messages multiplies )
Elihu is using the term words to mean what Job has been saying by using words. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [he says many things]

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