SEV Biblia, Chapter 9:14

¶ ¿Cuánto menos le responderé yo, y eligiré mis palabras con él?

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Job 9:14

Verse 14. How much less shall I answer ] I cannot contend with my Maker. He is the Lawgiver and the Judge. How shall I stand in judgment before him?

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 14-21 - Job is still righteous in his own eyes, ch. 32:1, and this answer though it sets forth the power and majesty of God, implies that the question between the afflicted and the Lord of providence, is question of might, and not of right; and we begin to discover the evi fruits of pride and of a self-righteous spirit. Job begins to manifes a disposition to condemn God, that he may justify himself, for which he is afterwards reproved. Still Job knew so much of himself, that he durst not stand a trial. If we say, We have no sin, we not only deceiv ourselves, but we affront God; for we sin in saying so, and give the lie to the Scripture. But Job reflected on God's goodness and justic in saying his affliction was without cause.
