Job 21:27 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

I know your thoughts; I perceive what you think, and will object, and say for your own defence. The devices, or, evil thoughts; for so this word is oft used, as Proverbs 12:2 Proverbs 14:17 Job 24:8 Isaiah 32:7. Wrongfully imagine, or wrest, or violently force. For they strained both Job's words, and their own thoughts, which were biassed by their prejudice and passion against Job. Against me; for I know very well that your discourses, though they be of wicked men in the general, yet are particularly levelled at me.
