5Are your days like the days of a mortal, or your years like the years of a mortal, 6that you must search out my iniquity, and inquire about my sin, although you know that I am not guilty, and that there is no one who can deliver out of your hand? 8“Your hands have shaped me and made me, but now you destroy me completely. 9Remember that you have made me as with the clay; will you return me to dust?

Commentaries on Job 10:7

• Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 7Thou knowest that I am not wicked - While thou hast this knowledge of me and my conduct, why appear to be sifting me as if in order to find out sin; and though none can be found, treating me as though I were a transgressor?Read the comment
• 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.
