Job 40:4 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

I am vile, what am I, a mean and contemptible creature that should presume to contend with my Maker and Judge? I confess my fault and folly. What shall I answer thee? I neither desire nor am able to dispute with thee. I will for the future bridle my tongue, and instead of contesting with thee, do here humbly and willingly submit myself to thee.

Job 40:4

4 Behold, I am vile; what shall I answer thee? I will lay mine hand upon my mouth.
