Job 9:13

RV 'God will not withdraw his anger; the helpers of Rahab do stoop under him.' The word 'Rahab,' which means 'pride,' occurs again in Job 26:12 RV, and is there evidently applied to the raging sea. 'This stormy sea, assaulting heaven with its waves, was personified in ancient myth as a monster leading his helpers on to wage war with heaven' (Davidson). Rahab is the same as Tiâmat (see on Job 7:12). The myth relates that she brought forth a brood of monsters to help her in her battle. To this the term 'helpers of Rahab' alludes. See also Isaiah 51:9.

14-21. God, Job feels, is resolved to regard him as guilty. It is therefore vain to assert his innocence, yet while he can assert it he will.
