Job 33:17-26

Coverdale(i) 17 that it is he, which withdraweth man from euell, delyuereth him from pryde, 18 kepeth his soule from destruccion, & his life from ye swearde. 19 he chasteneth him with sicknesse, & bringeth him to his bed: he laieth sore punyshmet vpo his bones, 20 so that his life maye awaye wt no bred, & his soule abhorreth to eate eny dayntie meate: 21 In so moch, that his body is clene consumed awaye, & his bones appeare nomore. 22 His soule draweth on to destruccion, & his life to death. 23 Now yf there be an angel (one amonge a thousande) sent for to speake vnto ma, and to shewe him the right waye: 24 the the LORDE is mercifull vnto him, & sayeth: He shalbe delyuered, yt he fall not downe to destruccion, for I am sufficiently recociled. 25 Than his flesh (which hath bene in misery & trouble) shalbe, as it was in his youth. 26 For yf he submitte himself vnto God, he is gracious, & sheweth him his countenaunce ioyfully, & rewardeth man for his rightuousnes.
