Job 35:9–16, “By reason of the multitude of oppressions they make the oppressed to cry: they cry out by reason of the arm of the mighty. But none saith, Where is God my maker, who giveth songs in the night; Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, and maketh us wiser than the fowls of heaven? There they cry, but none giveth answer, because of the pride of evil men. Surely God will not hear vanity, neither will the Almighty regard it. Although thou sayest thou shalt not see him, yet judgment is before him; therefore trust thou in him. But now, because it is not so, he hath visited in his anger; yet he knoweth it not in great extremity: Therefore doth Job open his mouth in vain; he multiplieth words without knowledge.”

Elihu said that when people suffer greatly they cry out because of their suffering. However, no one called out to find where God, who gives people songs in the night, was so that God could answer their questions. No one wants to go to God and argue with Him about the justice of their suffering. He told Job to look at the animals who call out all the time but no one answers them. Job was saying worthless things because he was suffering.
