Verse 4 is found in chapter 10 of Job. Job begins a direct speech to God and asks to know the reason for his affliction. He remembers that God himself formed him, gave him life, and sustained him. The question is especially intense because the same God who carefully created Job now seems to act against him. The conflict is located between creation, providence, and suffering.
