Scripture Context
Job 32:16 - Job 33:3
16 When I had waited, (for they spake not, but stood still, and answered no more,)
17 I said, I will answer also my part; I also will show mine opinion.
18 For I am full of matter; the spirit within me constraineth me.
19 Behold, my belly is as wine which hath no vent; it is ready to burst like new bottles.
20 I will speak, that I may be refreshed; I will open my lips and answer.
21 Let me not, I pray you, accept any man's person; neither let me give flattering titles unto man.
22 For I know not to give flattering titles; in so doing my Maker would soon take me away.
Job 33
