Job 32:21

Job 32:21

Compare all

19 Indeed my¹ belly is like wine that has no² vent;
It is ready to burst like new wineskins.

20 I will speak, that I may find relief;
I must open my lips and answer.

21 Let me not, I pray, show partiality to anyone;
Nor let me flatter any man.

22 For I do not know how to flatter,
Else my Maker would soon take me ^aaway.

"May I never accept," etc. Elihu alludes to Job's words (Job 13:8, Job 13:10), wherein he complains that the friends plead for God partially, "accepting His person." Elihu says he will not do so, but will act impartially between God and Job. "And I will not give flattery," etc. (Proverbs 24:23).
