Job 9:13
13. If God—rather, "God will not withdraw His anger," that is, so long as a mortal obstinately resists [UMBREIT].
the proud helpers—The arrogant, who would help one contending with the Almighty, are of no avail against Him. Psalms 78:38
33-39. Though there were partial reformations after chastisement, and God, in pity, withdrew His hand for a time, yet their general conduct was rebellious, and He was thus provoked to waste and destroy them, by long and fruitless wandering in the desert.
