Eliphaz continues speaking to Job.

## Is not God in the heights of heaven? ##

Eliphaz uses a question to remind Job that God is in heaven and sees everything that happens on earth.  (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]])

## Look at the height of the stars, how high they are! ##

AT: "Look at how high the stars are. God is even high above them" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]])

## What does God know? Can he judge through the thick darkness? ##

Eliphaz is stating what he believes Job would say. He uses questions for emphasis. AT: "God does not know what happens on earth. He sits in dark clouds and cannot judge us" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]])

## he walks on the vault of heaven ##

Here "vault" refers to the barrier that ancient people believed separated the earth from heaven. AT: "he lives too far away in heaven to see what happens here"
