Verse 6 is found in chapter 22 of Job. Eliphaz moves partly beyond generalities and directly accuses Job of specific sins against the poor, widows, and needy. The literary problem is evident: the reader knows that these accusations do not correspond to the initial portrait of Job. The speech shows how a rigid theory can lead to inventing causes to explain inexplicable suffering.
