Elihu

See how you translated this Job 32:1.

Listen to my words

AT: "Listen to what I say" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy)

you wise men...you who have knowledge

Elihu is criticizing Job and his friends. He does not think they are actually wise. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-irony)

For the ear tries words as the palate tastes food

Elihu means people listen carefully to determine what is right or wrong just like we taste food to determine if it is good or bad. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-simile and rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-synecdoche)
