Contextual Overview
1 And Job answered and said: 2 I have heard many such things . You are all miserable comforters. 3 Is there an end to windy words? Or what provokes you that you answer? 4 I also could speak as you. If your soul were in the place of my soul, I could bind words against you and shake at you with my head. 5 I might make you strong with my mouth, and the moving of my lips could spare you.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible
CHAPTER XVI
Job replies to Eliphaz, and through him to all his friends,
who, instead of comforting him, had added to his misfortunes;
and shows that, had they been in his circumstances, he would
have treated them in a different manner, 1-5.
Enters into an affecting detail of his suffering, 6-16.
Consoles himself with the consciousness of his own innocence,
of which he takes God to witness, and patiently expects a
termination of all his sufferings by death. 17-22.
