Job 9:12 (ESV)

12 Behold, he snatches away; who can turn him back? Who will say to him, ‘What are you doing?’

God has snatched away everything from Job. Job must be thinking especially of his ten children. There was nothing that he as a father could do to protect or save them. He could not even question God (What are you doing?).
