Should he reason with unprofitable talk, or with speeches with which he can do no good?

In context

1 Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered,

2 “Should a wise man answer with vain knowledge, and fill himself with the east wind?

3 Should he reason with unprofitable talk, or with speeches with which he can do no good?

4 Yes, you do away with fear, and hinder devotion before God.

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