Contextual Overview
6 And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said, I am young, and you are very aged; so I held back and was afraid to make my knowledge known to you. 7 I said, Days will speak, and many years will make wisdom known. 8 But it is a spirit in man giving them perception, even the breath of the Almighty. 9 It is not the great that are wise, nor the aged who perceive justice; 10 so then I say, Listen to me; I will declare my opinion, I also. 11 Behold, I waited for your words; I listened to your reasons while you searched out words; 12 yea, I paid attention to you, and behold, not one of you proved Job wrong, nor answered his sayings; 13 that you not say, We have discovered wisdom. It is God who will scatter him, not man. 14 And he has not ordered words against me, and I will not answer him with your words.

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.
