And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said, I am young, and ye are very old; wherefore I was afraid, and durst not shew you mine opinion.
Entonces Elihú, hijo de Baraquel de Buz, habló y dijo: 'Yo soy joven, y ustedes son mucho mayores que yo. Por eso tuve miedo y no me atreví a compartir mis pensamientos con ustedes.'
Elihú explica que su juventud lo hizo dudar en hablar ante hombres mayores.
📚 Contexto Histórico
This verse introduces Elihu, a fourth friend who has been silently listening to Job's debate with his three older friends (Eliphaz, Bildad, and Zophar). In ancient Middle Eastern culture, younger people were expected to show great respect to their elders and wait for permission before speaking in serious discussions. Elihu had been restraining himself out of cultural propriety, but is now about to break his silence.
