Job 15:2

2 "Should a wise man answer with windy knowledge, and fill himself with the east wind?

Job 15:2 In-Context

1 Then Eli'phaz the Te'manite answered:
2 "Should a wise man answer with windy knowledge, and fill himself with the east wind?
3 Should he argue in unprofitable talk, or in words with which he can do no good?
4 But you are doing away with the fear of God, and hindering meditation before God.
5 For your iniquity teaches your mouth, and you choose the tongue of the crafty.
