THE MESSAGE
God then confronted Job directly: "Now what do you have to say for yourself? Are you going to haul me, the Mighty One, into court and press charges?" Job answered: "I'm speechless, in awe—words fail me. I should never have opened my mouth! I've talked too much, way too much. I'm ready to shut up and listen."

Contextual Overview
6 Then the Lord spoke to Job again from the storm: 7 "Brace yourself and get ready to answer the questions I will ask you. 8 "Are you trying to show that I am unfair? Are you trying to look innocent by saying that I am guilty? 9 Are your arms as strong as mine? Do you have a voice like mine that is as loud as thunder? 10 If so, you can be proud and wear glory and honor like clothes. 11 If you are as powerful as God, then show your anger! Punish those who are proud and humble them. 12 Yes, just look at the proud and make them humble. Crush those evil people where they stand. 13 Bury them all in the dirt. Wrap their bodies up and put them in their graves. 14 If you can do any of these things, then even I will praise you. And I will admit that you can save yourself by your own power.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Then answered the Lord unto Job out of the whirlwind,.... Some think that the whirlwind ceased while the Lord spake the words in
Job 40:2; which encouraged Job to make the answer he did; but others are of opinion that it continued, and now increased, and was more boisterous than before. The Targum calls it the whirlwind of tribulation: comfort does not always follow immediately on first convictions; Job, though humbled, was not yet humbled enough: God will have a fuller confession of sin from him: it was not sufficient to say he was vile, he must declare his sorrow for his sin, his abhorrence of it, and of himself for it, and his repentance of it; and that he had said things of God he ought not to have said, and which he understood not; and though he had said he would answer no more, God will make him say more, and therefore continued the whirlwind, and to speak out of it; for he had more to say to him, and give him further proof of his power to his full conviction;
and said; as follows.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Then answered the Lord unto Job out of the whirlwind - See the notes at Job 38:1. God here resumes the argument which had been interrupted in order to give Job an opportunity to speak and to carry his cause before the Almighty, as he had desired, see Job 40:2. Since Job had nothing to say, the argument, which had been suspended, is resumed and completed.
