▼Hebrew and
a son of man does with his neighbor.Job 23:4-7
4I would flay my case before himand fill my mouth with arguments.
5I would know what he would answer me
and understand what he would say to me.

and I would be acquitted forever by my judge.

31if the men of my tent have not said,‘Who is there that has not been filled with his imeat?’
32( jthe sojourner has not lodged in the street;
I have opened my doors to the traveler),
33if I khave concealed my transgressions las others do ▼
▼Or as Adam did
by hiding my iniquity in my heart,
34because I stood in great fear of nthe multitude,
and the contempt of families terrified me,
so that I kept silence, and did not go out of doors—
35Oh, that I had one to hear me!
(Here is my signature! Let the Almighty oanswer me!)
Oh, that I had pthe indictment written by my adversary!
36Surely I would carry it on my qshoulder;
I would rbind it on me as sa crown;
37I would give him an account of all my steps;
like a prince I would approach him.
