Contextual Overview
6 So Elihu son of Barakel the Buzite said this: "I am young, and you are old. That is why I was afraid to tell you what I know. 7 I thought, ‘Older people should speak, and those who have lived many years should teach wisdom.' 8 But it is the spirit in a person, the breath of the Almighty, that gives understanding. 9 It is not just older people who are wise; they are not the only ones who understand what is right. 10 So I say, listen to me. I too will tell you what I know. 11 I waited while you three spoke, and listened to your explanations. While you looked for words to use, 12 I paid close attention to you. But not one of you has proved Job wrong; none of you has answered his arguments. 13 Don't say, ‘We have found wisdom; only God will show Job to be wrong, not people.' 14 Job has not spoken his words against me, so I will not use your arguments to answer Job.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Therefore I said, hearken to me,.... Thou O Job, and every one of you his friends, for the word is singular; though I am but a young man, yet if I have the Spirit of God, and am under the inspiration of the Almighty, I may be able to say something to you worth your hearing:
I also will show mine opinion; for though for a while he was timorous and fearful of doing it, lest he should mistake and expose himself, yet having duly weighed and considered the above things, he was determined to do it.
