Verse 38 is found in chapter 31 of Job. Job ends his defense by wishing that someone would respond to his declaration of innocence. He wants his accusation written and formally presented, as though he carried an authoritative sign upon himself. He then again describes his treatment of the land and ends his words. The structure marks the conclusion of his great defense before Elihu’s intervention.
