Job 5:9

This description of God as great in power and wonderful in working supports the implied exhortation in Job 5:8. Eliphaz in Job's place would commit his cause, or exactly as we say colloquially, his case, unto God, for He, being great and wonderful in His ways, is capable of dealing with it, perplexed and mysterious though it be. A touch of humanity seems here almost to get the better of the moral and religious severity of Eliphaz.
