8 Surely a spirit is in man, And the breath of the Mighty One  Doth cause them to understand.
         
                                
                        9 The multitude are not wise, Nor do the aged understand  judgment.
         
                                
                        10 Therefore I have said: Hearken to me, I do shew my opinion  -- even I.
         
                                
                        11 Lo, I have waited for your words, I give ear unto your  reasons, Till ye search out sayings.
         
                                
                        12 And unto you I attend, And lo, there is no reasoner for  Job, [Or] answerer of his sayings among you.
         
                                
                        13 Lest ye say, We have found wisdom, God doth thrust him  away, not man.
         
                                
                        14 And he hath not set in array words for me, And with your  sayings I do not answer him.
