Job 32:8
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
But there is a spirit in a man, the breath of the Almighty, that gives him understanding.
In context
6 So Elihu son of Barachel the Buzite declared: “I am young in years, while you are old; that is why I was timid and afraid to tell you what I know.
7 I thought that age should speak, and many years should teach wisdom.
8 But there is a spirit in a man, the breath of the Almighty, that gives him understanding.
9 It is not only the old who are wise, or the elderly who understand justice.
10 Therefore I say, ‘Listen to me; I too will declare what I know.’
