7. I thought, Let days speak;let multiple years make wisdom known.
8. But the spirit in a person,the Almighty’s breath, gives understanding.
9. The advanced in days aren’t wise;the old don’t understand what’s right.
10. Therefore, I say: "Listen to me;I’ll state my view, even I."
11. Look, I waited while you spoke,listened while you reasoned,while you searched for words.
12. I was attentive to you,but you offered no rebuke to Job,no answer from you for his words.
