There the upright might reason with him, so I should be delivered forever from my judge.

EXPLANATION

Verse 7. Victory. Before such a judge I should hope to be acquitted. Job must have been well convinced of his innocence. For woe to man, if God treat him according to the rigour of his justice! Calmet.—Septuagint “For truth and reproof are with him. But, oh! that he would bring my judgment to an end.” Bible.
