Job 6:26 Douay-Rheims

You dress up speeches only to rebuke, and you utter words to the wind.

Jamieson, Fausset & Brown

1871 Reformed

Do you imagine--or, "mean." to reprove words and (to reprove) the speeches of one desperate, (which are) as wind?--mere nothings, not to be so narrowly taken to task? UMBREIT not so well takes the Hebrew for "as wind," as "sentiments"; making formal "sentiments" antithetical to mere "speeches," and supplying, not the word "reprove," but "would you regard," from the first clause.
