Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Job 19:5

_ _ magnify, etc. — Speak proudly (Obadiah 1:12; Ezekiel 35:13).

_ _ against me — emphatically repeated (Psalms 38:16).

_ _ plead ... reproachEnglish Version makes this part of the protasis, “if” being understood, and the apodosis beginning at Job 19:6. Better with Umbreit, If ye would become great heroes against me in truth, ye must prove (evince) against me my guilt, or shame, which you assert. In the English Version “reproach” will mean Job’s calamities, which they “pleaded” against him as a “reproach,” or proof of guilt.

Matthew Henry's Commentary
