13 That you turn your spirit against God, And let such words go out of your mouth?

Job 15:13 Meaning and Commentary

Job 15:13

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 ) ( 10:3 ) ( 12:6 ) ( 13:22-27 ) .

Job 15:13 In-Context

11 Are the consolations of God too small for you, And the word spoken gently with you?
12 Why does your heart carry you away, And what do your eyes wink at,
13 That you turn your spirit against God, And let such words go out of your mouth?
14 "What is man, that he could be pure? And he who is born of a woman, that he could be righteous?
15 If God puts no trust in His saints, And the heavens are not pure in His sight,
