Jó 19:5

5 Se deveras vos quereis engrandecer contra mim, e me incriminar pelo meu opróbrio,

Jó 19:5 Meaning and Commentary

Job 19:5

If indeed ye will magnify [yourselves] against me
Look and talk big, set up themselves for great folk, and resolve to run him down; open their mouths wide against him and speak great swelling words in a blustering manner; or magnify what they called an error in him, and set it out in the worst light they could:

and plead against me my reproach;
his affliction which he was reproached with, and was pleaded against him as an argument of his being a wicked man; if therefore they were determined to go on after this manner, and insist on this kind of proof, then he would have them take what follows.

Jó 19:5 In-Context

3 Já dez vezes me haveis humilhado; não vos envergonhais de me maltratardes?
4 Embora haja eu, na verdade, errado, comigo fica o meu erro.
5 Se deveras vos quereis engrandecer contra mim, e me incriminar pelo meu opróbrio,
6 sabei então que Deus é o que transtornou a minha causa, e com a sua rede me cercou.
7 Eis que clamo: Violência! mas não sou ouvido; grito: Socorro! mas não há justiça.
