Context of Job 10:7
5Are thy days as the days of man, Or thy years as man’s days, 6That thou inquirest after mine iniquity, And searchest after my sin, Although thou knowest that I am not wicked, And there is none that can deliver out of thy hand? 8Thy hands have framed me and fashioned me Together round about; yet thou dost destroy me. 9Remember, I beseech thee, that thou hast fashioned me as clay; And wilt thou bring me into dust again?

- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 7Thou knowest that I am not wicked - That is, that I am not a hypocrite, or an impenitent sinner.
