Job 32:13

Elihu Rebukes Job And His Three Friends

¹² Now I was paying you close attention, yet there was no one proving Job wrong, not one of you was answering his statements! ¹³ So do not say, 'We have found wisdom! God will refute him, not man!' ¹⁴ Job has not directed his words to me, and so I will not reply to him with your arguments.
