In context

13 “God will not withdraw his anger. The helpers of Rahab stoop under him.

14 How much less will I answer him, and choose my words to argue with him?

15 Though I were righteous, yet I wouldn’t answer him. I would make supplication to my judge.

16 If I had called, and he had answered me, yet I wouldn’t believe that he listened to my voice.

17 For he breaks me with a storm, and multiplies my wounds without cause.

18 He will not allow me to catch my breath, but fills me with bitterness.

19 If it is a matter of strength, behold, he is mighty! If of justice, ‘Who,’ says he, ‘will summon me?’
