Giobbe 19:5

5 Se pur volete innalzarvi sopra a me, E volete rimproverarmi il mio vituperio,

Giobbe 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.

Giobbe 19:5 In-Context

3 Già dieci volte voi mi avete fatta onta; Non vi vergognate voi di procedere così stranamente meco?

4 Ma pure, sia così certamente che io abbia fallito, Il mio fallo dimorerà meco.

5 Se pur volete innalzarvi sopra a me, E volete rimproverarmi il mio vituperio,

6 Sappiate ora che Iddio mi ha sovvertito, E ch’egli mi ha intorniato della sua rete.

7 Ecco, io grido violenza, e non sono esaudito; Io sclamo, e non mi si fa ragione.
