Contextual Overview
1 Then Eliphaz from Teman answered Job: 2 "If you were really wise, you would not answer with your worthless personal opinions! A wise man would not be so full of hot air. 3 Do you think a wise man would use empty words and meaningless speeches to win his arguments? 4 If you had your way, no one would respect God and pray to him. 5 What you say clearly shows your sin. Job, you are trying to hide your sin by using clever words. 6 I don't need to prove to you that you are wrong. The words from your own mouth show that you are wrong. Your own lips speak against you. 7 "Do you think you were the first person ever to be born? Were you born before the hills? 8 Did you listen to God's secret plans? Do you think you are the only wise person? 9 We know as much as you do! We understand as well as you. 10 The old, gray-haired men agree with us. People older than your father are on our side.

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.
