Context of Job 15:13

11You think that God's kind words are not important. But they should be enough for you. 12You have allowed your thoughts to confuse you. We can see in your eyes that you are very angry. Why are you so angry against God? You should not say such wicked things. 14No one who is human can be truly pure and righteous. 15God does not even trust his own angels. He knows that they make mistakes.

• Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 13That thou turnest thy spirit against God - The ideas here seem to be taken from an archer, who turns his eye and his spirit - his desire - against the object which he wishes to hit; and then lets loose his arrow that it may attain the mark.Read the comment
• Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 13That thou turnest thy spirit - That your mind is turned against God instead of acquiescing in his dealings. The views of Job he traces to pride and to overweening self-confidence, and perhaps not improperly.Read the comment
