Job19:5

5. If indeed ye will magnifie your selves against me , and plead against me my reproach g:

i. e. Use lofty, and imperious, and contemptuous Speeches against me. Or, seek Praise and Honour from others, by your conquering or out-reasoning of me. So called, either 1. Your reproaches of me: If your reproachful and censorious Speeches must pass for solid Arguments. Or 2. My wickedness, which, if true, were just matter of reproach, and the cause of all my miseries. Or 3. My contemptible and calamitous condition, for which you reproach and condemn me as an Hypocrite and wicked man.
