Job 36:2
Verse 2 of 33. The 36th of 42 chapters in Job, in Poetry and Wisdom.
1Elihu also proceeded, and said,
2Suffer me a little, and I will shew thee that I have yet to speak on God’s behalf.
3I will fetch my knowledge from afar, and will ascribe righteousness to my Maker.
4For truly my words shall not be false: he that is perfect in knowledge is with thee.
5Behold, God is mighty, and despiseth not any: he is mighty in strength and wisdom.
6He preserveth not the life of the wicked: but giveth right to the poor.

Matthew Henry on Job 36:2
Stand about me a little (so some read it), v. 2. "Let me have your attendance, your attention, awhile longer, and I will speak but this once, as plainly and as much to the purpose as I can." To gain this he pleads, 1. That he had a good cause, and a noble and very fruitful subject: I have yet to speak on God's behalf.
