Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 10. - If he cut off; rather, if he advance (comp. Job 9:11). And shut up; or, imprison. Or gather together; rather, and call to judgment (see the Revised Version). If God, that is, advance against a man in hostile fashion, seize and imprison him, and then call him to judgment, what is to be said or done? who can interfere with him? Matters must take their course. There is no ground for complaint It is simply God's mode of administering justice on the earth. Who can hinder him? literally, who can turn him sway? i.e. interfere with his action, interrupt it, divert it.
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(10) If he cut off.--It is the same word as "a spirit passed before me" (Job 4:15); and as Job himself used (Job 9:11): "he passeth on, but I perceive him not." "If, then," says Zophar, "God acteth thus, or if He delivers up a man into the hands of his enemies, or if He calls together a multitude against him--alluding apparently to Job 9:11-12; Job 10:17, where the word rendered changes is a derivative of the word here rendered "cut off"--then who can turn Him back from His intent?" adopting Job's own question at Job 9:12 : "Who can hinder Him?" Some understand the three terms forensically: "if He arrest, and imprison, and hold assize; "but it is probable that Job's own statements are alluded to.
