Contextual Overview

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

Thine own mouth condemneth thee, and not I,.... Or shows thee to be a wicked person, guilty of things charged upon thee; out of thine own mouth thou art convicted, there needs no other evidence to be brought against thee, that is sufficient: and thou savest me, and any other, the trouble of passing the sentence of condemnation upon thee; thou hast done it thyself, thine own mouth is judge and jury, and brings in the verdict, and pronounces it, as well as is the witness, as follows, and is instead of a thousand witnesses, Job 9:20;

yea, thine own lips testify against thee; and therefore there were no need of producing any other testimony; what he had said showed that his talk was vain and unprofitable, unbecoming a wise man, and tending to make null and void the fear of God among men, to discourage all religious exercises, and particularly prayer before God.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Thine own mouth condemneth thee - That is, the sentiments which you have uttered show that you cannot be a pious man.
