“How forcible are right words! but what doth your arguing reprove?”
Job asserts that the words of truth are forceful and powerful, questioning what his friends' reproof accomplishes, suggesting that their speech lacks the character of genuine truth. The question implies that if their words were truly true, they would have the force to convince and transform; since they lack such power, they must be false. Job's assertion privileges authentic truth-telling over mere rhetoric.
