Haydock's commentary

Life. Job had intimated a fear to proceed any farther. (Calmet)

But perceiving that he had not convinced his friends, he continues his discourse (Haydock) in still stronger terms, yet so as to acknowledge the justice of God. (Calmet)

Speech against. Hebrew, "complaint upon, (Haydock) or respecting myself," I will deplore my misfortunes, (Calmet) or I will say no more about them. (Menochius)
