Verse 20 is found in chapter 11 of Job. Zophar describes God’s incomprehensibility and the impossibility of escaping his knowledge. He states that repentance would bring restoration and security. The passage presents a high view of divine transcendence, but again connects Job’s situation with an alleged need for repentance, something the book’s prologue has already called into question.
