Job is describing his complaint to God as if he wrote it down in a legal document. He would write his name on it as a promise that everything in the document is true.

## if only I had the indictment that my opponent has written ##
|
||
|
|
||
|
"if only I could read my opponent's complaint against me"
|
||
|
|

|
## Surely I would carry it openly on my shoulder; I would put it on like a crown ##

This means if God would write down his complaints against Job, then Job would put the document where everyone could read it.

|
## for my steps ##

This refers to Job's actions.

## as a confident prince ##
