Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

OET (OET-RV) So now Elihi (son of Barakel the Buzite) spoke up:
⇔ I’m only young and all of you are much older than me,
⇔ so I was shy and reluctant to give you all my views.

32:6 OSHB note: BHS has been faithful to the Leningrad Codex where there might be a question of the validity of the form and we keep the same form as BHS.

32:1–37:24 Having completed three cycles of speeches between Job and his three friends, we now hear from a new voice. Elihu has not been previously introduced, but he is a young man who has listened to everything the others have said.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / hendiadys
וַיַּ֤עַן & וַיֹּ֫אמַ֥ר
and,answered & and,said
As the General Introduction to Job discusses, this phrase expresses a single idea by using two words connected with and. The word answered tells for what purpose a person said something. Specifically, the person said it in order to answer or respond to what someone else said. See how you have been translating this expression. Alternate translation: [And … responded]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
לְ֭יָמִים
in,years
Elihu is using the term days to refer to his age. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [in age]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular
וְאַתֶּ֣ם
and,you_all
As the General Notes to this chapter discuss, the word you is plural here because Elihu is addressing Job’s three friends, so use the plural form in your translation if your language marks that distinction.
