Exegesis
The verb yaggid {יַגִּיד | yag-gîḏ} ‘he makes known’ takes reim {רֵעִים | rē-‘îm} ‘friends’ as its object; in context, “making known” concerns reporting information about companions in a way that harms them, so English expresses the implied adversative force with “inform against / inform on,” while staying anchored to the core sense “tell, report.”
In context — Job 17:5
He who informs against friends for a share, even the eyes of his sons will fail.
