Job 15:2-6

2 “Does a wise man answer with blustery knowledge, ^{▼▼ The Hebrew is דַעַת־רוּחַ (da’at-ruakh). This means knowledge without any content, vain knowledge.}
or fill his belly ^{▼▼ The image is rather graphic. It is saying that he puffs himself up with the wind and then brings out of his mouth blasts of this wind.} with the east wind? ^{▼▼ The word for “east wind,” קָדִים (qadim), is parallel to “spirit/wind” also in Hos 12:2. The east wind is maleficent, but here in the parallelism it is so much hot air.}
3 Does he argue ^{▼▼ The infinitive absolute in this place is functioning either as an explanatory adverb or as a finite verb.} ^{▼▼ Eliphaz draws on Job’s claim with this word (cf. Job 13:3), but will declare it hollow.} with useless ^{▼▼ The verb סָכַן (sakhan) means “to be useful, profitable.” It is found 5 times in the book with this meaning. The Hiphil of יָעַל (ya’al) has the same connotation. E. Lipiński offers a new meaning on a second root, “incur danger” or “run risks” with words, but this does not fit the parallelism (FO 21 [1980]: 65-82).} talk,
with words that have no value in them?
4 But you even break off ^{▼▼ The word פָּרַר (parar) in the Hiphil means “to annul; to frustrate; to destroy; to break,” and this fits the line quite well. The NEB reflects G. R. Driver’s suggestion of an Arabic cognate meaning “to expel; to banish” (“Problems in the Hebrew text of Job,” VTSup 3 [1955]: 77).} piety, ^{▼▼ Heb “fear,” “reverence.”}
and hinder ^{▼▼ The word גָּרַע (gara’) means “to diminish,” regard as insignificant, occasionally with the sense of “pull down” (Deut 4:2; 13:1). It is here that Eliphaz is portraying Job as a menace to the religion of society because they dissuade people from seeking God.} meditation ^{▼▼ The word שִׂיחָה (sikhah) is “complaint; cry; meditation.” Job would be influencing people to challenge God and not to meditate before or pray to him.} before God.
5 Your sin inspires ^{▼▼ The verb אַלֵּף (’allef) has the meaning of “to teach; to instruct,” but it is unlikely that the idea of revealing is intended. If the verb is understood metonymically, then “to inspire; to prompt” will be sufficient. Dahood and others find another root, and render the verb “to increase,” reversing subject and object: “your mouth increases your iniquity.”} your mouth;
you choose the language ^{▼▼ Heb “tongue.”} of the crafty. ^{▼▼ The word means “shrewd; crafty; cunning” (see Gen 3:1). Job uses clever speech that is misleading and destructive.}
6 Your own mouth condemns ^{▼▼ The Hiphil of this root means “declare wicked, guilty” (a declarative Hiphil), and so “condemns.”} you, not I;
your own lips testify against ^{▼▼ The verb עָנָה (’anah) with the ל (lamed) preposition following it means “to testify against.” For Eliphaz, it is enough to listen to Job to condemn him.} you.
