Should he argue with useless words or speeches that serve no purpose?

In context

1 Then Eliphaz the Temanite replied:

2 “Does a wise man answer with empty counsel or fill his belly with the hot east wind?

3 Should he argue with useless words or speeches that serve no purpose?

4 But you even undermine the fear of God and hinder meditation before Him.

5 For your iniquity instructs your mouth, and you choose the language of the crafty.
