for this man

"for me.". Job refers to himself in the third person.

as a man does with his neighbor!

"as a man does for his neighbor." Job describes the need for someone to intercede for him in heaven. This person would be his advocate and provide a witness for him. Although this is probably not intended as a prophecy, it closely parallels the way Jesus intercedes for people in heaven.
