"that he would maintain the right of a man with God, of a son of man with his neighbor!"
— Job 16:21, World English Bible
“O that one might plead for a man with God, as a man pleadeth for his neighbour!”
“That he would maintain the right of a man with God, And of a son of man with his neighbor! ”
“and he contends with God on behalf of man as a man pleads for his friend.”
“My friends are full of words: my eye poureth out tears to God.”
“So that he may give decision for a man in his cause with God, and between a son of man and his neighbour.”
“O that one might plead for a man with God, as a man pleadeth for his neighbour!”
"Earth, don't cover my blood. Let my cry have no place to rest.
Even now, behold, my witness is in heaven. He who vouches for me is on high.
My friends scoff at me. My eyes pour out tears to God,
that he would maintain the right of a man with God, of a son of man with his neighbor!
For when a few years are come, I shall go the way of no return.
