16 Then he will uncover the ear of men, and will seal in their instruction,
17 To remove man from working, and he will bide pride from man.
18 He will keep back his soul from the pit, and his life from passing away by the spear.
19 And he was chastened with pain upon his bed, and the multitude of his bones perpetually.
20 His life loathed bread, and his soul food of desire.
21 His flesh will consume away from seeing, and they saw not the nakedness of his bones.
22 And his soul will draw near to the pit, and his life to the dead.
23 If there is a messenger upon him, an interpreter, one from a thousand, to announce to man his uprightness:
24 And he will compassionate him and say, Deliver him from going down to the pit: I found an expiation.
25 His flesh revived above a youth: he shall turn back to the days of his childhood.
26 He shall pray to God and he shall receive him into favor: and he shall see his face with rejoicing, and he will turn back to man his justice.
27 He will look upon men, and he shall say, I sinned, and I perverted the right, and it was not fitting to me;
28 Redeem my soul from passing into the pit, and my life shall look upon light
29 Behold, all these God will work twice, thrice, with man,
30 To turn back his soul from the pit, to enlighten with the light of the living.
