This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Same sentiment as Job 36:11, Job 36:12, expanded.

hypocrites - or, the ungodly [Maurer]; but “hypocrites” is perhaps a distinct class from the openly wicked (Job 36:12).

heap up wrath - of God against themselves (Rom 2:5). Umbreit translates, “nourish their wrath against God,” instead of “crying” unto Him. This suits well the parallelism and the Hebrew. But the English Version gives a good parallelism, “hypocrites” answering to “cry not” (Job 27:8, Job 27:10); “heap up wrath” against themselves, to “He bindeth them” with fetters of affliction (Job 36:8).
