¹ Then aunswered Eliphaz the Themanite, and saide: ² Shall a wyse mans aunswere be as the winde, and fill a mans belly as it were with the winde of the east? ³ Shall he reproue with a worde that is nothing worth, & speake the thinges which can do no good? ⁴ Surely thou hast cast of feare, and restrainest prayer before God. ⁵ For thy mouth setteth forth thyne owne iniquitie, seeing thou hast chosen the tongue of the craftie. ⁶ Thyne owne mouth condempneth thee, and not I: yea, thyne owne lippes shape an aunswere against thee. ⁷ Art thou the first man that euer was borne? or wast thou made before the hils? ⁸ Hast thou heard the secret counsell of God? and doest thou restraine wysdome to thee? ⁹ What knowest thou, that we knowe not? And what vnderstandest thou, but we can the same? ¹⁰ With vs are both olde and aged men, yea such as haue liued longer then thy father.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

That thou turnest thy spirit against God,.... Not against men, his friends only, but against God himself, being filled with wrath and indignation at him; showing the enmity of his heart unto him, and committing hostilities upon him, stretching out his hand, and strengthening himself against him, running upon him, on the thick bosses of his buckler, as after expressed:

and lettest [such] words go out of thy mouth? as in Job 9:22.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

That thou turnest thy spirit - That your mind is turned against God instead of acquiescing in his dealings. The views of Job he traces to pride and to overweening self-confidence, and perhaps not improperly.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Job 15:13. That thou turnest thy spirit against God — The ideas here seem to be taken from an archer, who turns his eye and his spirit-his desire-against the object which he wishes to hit; and then lets loose his arrow that it may attain the mark.
