Verse 8 is found in chapter 13 of Job. Job accuses his friends of being worthless physicians because they offer religious explanations without understanding his situation. He asks them to stop speaking for God and not defend divine justice through false arguments. The passage contains an important critique of theological speech: speaking rightly about God also requires respecting the truth of the particular case.
