32  Nje-ke amadoda amathathu lawo alisa ukuphendulana noJobho ngombana uJobho bekazibona alunge khulu.+  Kodwana u-Elihu indodana kaBharakeli umBhuzi+ womndeni kaRamu wasilingeka khulu ngebanga lakaJobho ngombana ulinge ukuzenza olungileko kunoZimu.+  Wasilingeka ngebanga labangani bakaJobho abathathu ngombana babhalelwe kumphendula kuhle kunalokho basola uZimu.+  Ngebanga lokuthi amadoda la bewamakhulu kunaye, u-Elihu walinda ngaphambi kobana aphendule uJobho.+  Kuthe nakabona ukuthi amadoda amathathu la akunanto enetlha angayitjho kuJobho, kwathi akafe ngokusilingeka.  U-Elihu indodana kaBharakeli umBhuzi, wathi: “Mina ngisesemutjha*Begodu nina nibadala.+ Nje-ke ngehlonipho ngizibambile,+Akhenge nginitjele engikwaziko.   Ngacabanga ngathi, ‘Akukhulume abantu abadala,Begodu labo abaphile isikhathi eside abaveze ukuhlakanipha kwabo.’   Kwamambala nguZimu onikela abantu ummoya ocwengileko,Begodu kuphefumula koMninimandla Woke okubenza bazwisise.+   Ubudala abumenzi umuntu ahlakaniphe,Begodu akusibabantu abadala kwaphela abazwisisa okulungileko.+ 10  Nje-ke ngithi kuwe, ‘Akhungilalele,Nami ngizokutjela engikwaziko.’ 11  Bengisolo ngilindele amezwenu;Bengisolo ngilalele indlela enicabanga ngayo+Nanisolo nifunana nezinto eningazitjho.+ 12  Bengisolo ngilalelisise enikutjhoko,Begodu noke nje nibhalelwe kusola uJobhoNamkha niphendule amezwakhe. 13  Yeke ningazitjeli nithi, ‘Sifumene ukuhlakanipha;Akube nguZimu omlungisako, kungabi mumuntu.’ 14  Amezwakhe akhenge awaqalisele kimi,Nje-ke angekhe ngimphendule ngalokho akutjhwileko. 15  Bararekile, abasakghoni ukuphendula;Akusekho okhunye abangakutjho. 16  Bengisolo ngilindile kodwana abasakghoni ukukhuluma;Sebajame kwaphela abasenapendulo. 17  Nje-ke nami ngizokuphendula;Ngizonitjela engikwaziko, 18  Ngombana kunengi engingakutjho;Ummoya ongaphakathi kwami uyangisunduza. 19  Amathumbami afana newayini elivalelekileko lingafumani umoya,Afana nemigodla yewayini efuna ukuthuthumba.+ 20  Akhe ngikhulume bona ngikghone ukutjhaphuluka! Ngizokuvula umlomami, ngiphendule. 21  Akunamuntu engizomkhethulula;+Namkha ngimtshime, 22  Ngombana angikwazi ukutshima;Ngathana bengikwazi, uMbumbami bekazongisusa khonokho.
