Job 7:11 The three parallel statements of this verse (I will . . . ) mark the transition from Job’s response to Eliphaz to his response to God. That transition is also marked by the change in reference to God from the third person (“he”) in 6:9 to the second person (“you”) in 7:12.

Job 7:12 Job wonders why God treats him as if he were as powerful and dangerous as the sea or a sea monster.

Job 7:16 I loathe my life. Compare 9:21; 42:6.

Job 7:17–18 What is man, that you make so much of him echoes Ps. 8:4 (“what is man that you are mindful of him”). However, where Psalm 8 marvels at how humanity has been crowned with glory by God, Job laments the weight of God’s watchful presence crushing him (Job 7:20).
