Contextual Overview
1And Job answers and says:2"I have heard many such things, || Miserable comforters [are] you all. 3Is there an end to words of wind? Or what emboldens you that you answer? 4I also, like you, might speak, || If your soul were in my soul's stead. I might join against you with words, || And nod at you with my head. 5I might harden you with my mouth, || And the moving of my lips might be sparing.

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.
