So should I be delivered for ever from my Judge; That is,¹ I should escape the severity of his sentence. The Judge hath him that comes before him in hold, he hath him in his hand or power when his case is pleading, but when a man is acquitted, then he is delivered from his Judge, that is, from the condemning sentence of his Judge, then he is pronounced free, or (as we say) acquitted by Proclamation; no man may then meddle with him, or charge his crime upon him. Job was assured that he should come off well at his trial, and that there could be no bringing of the matter about again. I should be delivered for ever; that is, I should never be questioned more, I should see an end, or final determination of my cause.²
