Job 33:14-24 (The Darby Translation)
View In My Bible
14
For God speaketh once, and twice, -- [and man] perceiveth it not --
15
In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed;
16
Then he openeth men's ears, and sealeth their instruction,
17
That he may withdraw man [from his] work, and hide pride from man. a
18
He keepeth back his soul from the pit, and his life from passing away by the sword. b
19
He is chastened also with pain upon his bed, and with constant strife in his bones; c
20
And his life abhorreth bread, and his soul dainty food;
21
His flesh is consumed away from view, and his bones that were not seen stick out;
22
And his soul draweth near to the pit, and his life to the destroyers.
23
If there be a messenger with him, an interpreter, one among a thousand, to shew unto man d his duty; e
24
Then he will be gracious unto him, and say, Deliver f him from going down to the pit: I have found a ransom.
