Job 40:2

Shall he that contendeth, &c.— He who disputeth with the Almighty shall be chastised; he that will argue the point with God ought to answer for it: Heath: who, subjoining this after Job's confession, chap. 42: takes the argument to be this: "It is not sufficient that thou repentest in dust and ashes: the contending with God is a crime which deserves chastisement; and, according to strict justice, thou oughtest to answer for it." The latter clause of the verse refers to chap. Job 13:3.
