Job  


33 : 1 However now, Job, please hear my speech, And listen to all my words.
33 : 2 Behold now, I open my mouth, My tongue in my mouth speaks.
33 : 3 My words are from the uprightness of my heart, And my lips speak knowledge sincerely.
33 : 4 The Spirit of God has made me, And the breath of the Almighty gives me life.
33 : 5 Refute me if you can; Array yourselves before me, take your stand.
33 : 6 Behold, I belong to God like you; I too have been formed out of the clay.
33 : 7 Behold, no fear of me should terrify you, Nor should my pressure weigh heavily on you.
33 : 8 Surely you have spoken in my hearing, And I have heard the sound of your words:
33 : 9 `I am pure, without transgression; I am innocent and there is no guilt in me.
33 : 10 `Behold, He invents pretexts against me; He counts me as His enemy.
33 : 11 `He puts my feet in the stocks; He watches all my paths.`
33 : 12 Behold, let me tell you, you are not right in this, For God is greater than man.
33 : 13 Why do you complain against Him That He does not give an account of all His doings?
33 : 14 Indeed God speaks once, Or twice, yet no one notices it.
33 : 15 In a dream, a vision of the night, When sound sleep falls on men, While they slumber in their beds,
33 : 16 Then He opens the ears of men, And seals their instruction,
33 : 17 That He may turn man aside from his conduct, And keep man from pride;
33 : 18 He keeps back his soul from the pit, And his life from passing over into Sheol.
33 : 19 Man is also chastened with pain on his bed, And with unceasing complaint in his bones;
33 : 20 So that his life loathes bread, And his soul favorite food.
33 : 21 His flesh wastes away from sight, And his bones which were not seen stick out.
33 : 22 Then his soul draws near to the pit, And his life to those who bring death.
33 : 23 If there is an angel as mediator for him, One out of a thousand, To remind a man what is right for him,
33 : 24 Then let him be gracious to him, and say, `Deliver him from going down to the pit, I have found a ransom`;
33 : 25 Let his flesh become fresher than in youth, Let him return to the days of his youthful vigor;
33 : 26 Then he will pray to God, and He will accept him, That he may see His face with joy, And He may restore His righteousness to man.
33 : 27 He will sing to men and say, `I have sinned and perverted what is right, And it is not proper for me.
33 : 28 `He has redeemed my soul from going to the pit, And my life shall see the light.`
33 : 29 Behold, God does all these oftentimes with men,
33 : 30 To bring back his soul from the pit, That he may be enlightened with the light of life.
33 : 31 Pay attention, O Job, listen to me; Keep silent, and let me speak.
33 : 32 Then if you have anything to say, answer me; Speak, for I desire to justify you.
33 : 33 If not, listen to me; Keep silent, and I will teach you wisdom.
