Verse 8 is found in chapter 40 of Job. God asks Job whether he still wishes to contend with the Almighty, and Job responds by acknowledging his smallness. God then challenges Job’s ability to govern the world, humble the proud, and establish universal justice. The passage clarifies that the issue was not simply that Job had suffered, but that he sought to judge God’s entire government from his limited perspective.

Solltest du mein Urteil zunichte machen und mich verdammen, daß du gerecht seist?
¿Invalidarás tú también mi juicio? ¿Me condenarás a mí, para justificarte a ti?
¿Vas a invalidar mi justicia? ¿Me condenarás para darte tú la razón?
Anéantiras-tu jusqu'à ma justice? Me condamneras-tu pour te donner droit?
Annullerai tu pure il mio giudicio, E mi condannerai tu per giustificarti?
Porventura também tornarás tu vão o meu juízo, ou tu me condenarás, para te justificares?
你豈可廢棄我的判斷? 豈可定我有罪,好顯自己為義嗎?
