Job 19: We can see an exhausted and drained Job who thinks that everyone has turned against Him, including God. Yet, he firmly believes that His redeemer (God) will deliver his soul despite the decay of his physical life on this earth.
Job 20: This passage defines acts of unrighteousness or wickedness. Zophar explains to Job that the fate of the wicked is doomed on the day of God's wrath. Eventually all the guilt and wickedness will be exposed and uncovered.
Job 21: Instead of receiving comforting words and appeasement, Job thinks his friend Zophar is mocking him in a way. His complaint is not human directed but rather centered on God. He complains about the continuous good lives of the wicked while there is suffering to those who serve the Almighty. So regardless of what his friends come up with, there is no consolation for Job.
Job 22: Eliphaz rebukes Job. He points out Job's wickedness and sins toward God reminds him that he is a sinner like all others. He reminds Job to submit to God and to be at peace with him. Also he encourages him to listen to God and to lay up His word in his heart.
Job 23: We can see that Job's bitterness toward this situation keeps growing even further. He still mistakenly believes that he is an upright person and that he undeservedly goes through all this punishment now. Though he claims to be innocent before Him, he still does not see his shortcoming and sins that he committed toward God.
