This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

beasts - alluding to what Job said (Job 12:7; so Isa 1:3).

vile - rather from a Hebrew root, “to stop up.” “Stubborn,” answering to the stupidity implied in the parallel first clause [Umbreit]. Why should we give occasion by your empty speeches for our being mutually reputed, in the sight of Job and one another, as unintelligent? (Job 17:4, Job 17:10).
