Job 31:35 Who would grant me a hearer, that the Almighty may hear my desire: and that he himself that judges would write a book;

He himself. Hebrew, "my adversary would write a book." His very accusation would establish my cause, provided he adhered to the truth. (Calmet) --- I would carry it about as a trophy. (Haydock) --- A book. The judge wrote down the sentence. Job appeals to God, and fears not being condemned.
