¹⁵ For they were so abashed, that they coulde not make aunswere, nor speake one worde. ¹⁶ When I had wayted (for they spake not, but stoode still and aunswered no more:) ¹⁷ Then aunswered I in my turne, and I shewed myne opinion. ¹⁸ For I am full of matter, and the spirite within me compelleth me. ¹⁹ Beholde, my belly is as the wine, whiche hath no vent, lyke the newe bottels that bruste. ²⁰ [Therfore] will I speake, that I may haue a bent: I will open my lippes, and make aunswere. ²¹ I will regarde no maner of person, no man will I spare. ²² For if I woulde go about to please men, I knowe not howe soone my maker would take me away.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

I will speak, that I may be refreshed,.... That his mind might be made easy; the matter it was full of lay with much weight upon it, pressed him hard, and gave him pain; and therefore he determines to speak his mind, and disburden himself: so a minister of the word speaks sometimes to the refreshment of others, the Gospel being a word in season to weary souls, bread to the hungry, drink to the thirsty, even wine to them that are of an heavy heart; and especially it is refreshing when the love of God is shed abroad in the heart through it, and the presence of God is enjoyed under it; and sometimes he speaks to the refreshment of himself with others, Romans 15:32; and whether it be so, one or the other, yet a faithful minister eases his mind, discharges his conscience, and is clear from the blood of all, when he truly and fully declares the whole counsel of God, so far as he is acquainted with it:

I will open my lips and answer; speak freely and boldly what was upon his mind, and he had to say, and which he judged would be a sufficient answer to Job; the opening of his lips is a phrase used by him in allusion to the opening of a bottle, full of new wine, the metaphor before expressed by him.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

I will speak, that I may be refreshed - Margin, “breathe.” The meaning is, that he would then have room to breathe again; he would feel relieved.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Job 32:20. I will open my lips and answer. — In the preceding verse Elihu compares himself to a skin-bottle, in which the wine was in a state of fermentation, and the bottle ready to burst for want of vent. He carries on the metaphor in this verse: the bottle must be opened to save it from bursting; I will OPEN my mouth.
