Job 24:
Job seems to mention that the rebels against the light may seem to be exalted initially but they will be all gone eventually. In the end, the Almighty will bring justice and right judgement to the land and His people.

Job 25:
Bildad correctly identifies the problem here. He points out to Job that no one is righteous before the Lord and that we are nothing but just a maggot - wormlike creature before the Almighty.

Job 26:
Job does not disagree. He is also overwhelmed at the Almighty's thunder of his power. He understands that no one is righteous before Him and that His wisdom and power extends all skies and heavens.

Job 27:
Despite, Job still complains that God has denied him justice and has made his life bitter. I think he is still self-righteous for says "I will maintain my innocence and never let go of it." He mistakenly believes that he can fathom and understand the power of God and His ways.

Job 28: So where does wisdom and understanding come from? “The fear of the Lord—that is wisdom, and to shun evil is understanding.” So in a nutshell, we need to get to know the Lord.
