Context of Job 10:7

5Are thy days as the days of a mortal? are thy years as a man's days, 6That thou searchest after mine iniquity, and inquirest into my sin; Since thou knowest that I am not wicked, and that there is none that delivereth out of thy hand? 8Thy hands have bound me together and made me as one, round about; yet dost thou swallow me up! 9Remember, I beseech thee, that thou hast made me as clay, and wilt 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.
