In context

3You asked, ‘Who is this who conceals My counsel without knowledge?’ Surely I spoke of things I did not understand, things too wonderful for me to know.

4You said, ‘Listen now, and I will speak. I will question you, and you shall inform Me.’

5My ears had heard of You, but now my eyes have seen You.

6Therefore I despise myself, and I repent in dust and ashes.”

7After the LORD had spoken these words to Job, He said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “My wrath is kindled against you and your two friends. For you have not spoken about Me accurately, as My servant Job has.
