מָֽה־אֱנ֥וֹשׁ כִּֽי־יִזְכֶּ֑ה וְכִֽי־יִ֝צְדַּ֗ק יְל֣וּד אִשָּֽׁה׃

What is man, that he should be clean? And he that is born of a woman, that he should be righteous?

Rashi on Job

What is man that he should be innocent What is his strength, that he can be innocent against the Holy One, blessed be He?

Malbim on Job

Eliphaz returns to the vision of which he first spoke in his previous speech, that in which he had claimed to have been told that the righteous suffer in order to atone for some minor sin, and, furthermore, that this was quite just because no-one was so righteous that he has never sinned.
