Job 33:18-30

LEB(i) 18 He spares his life from the pit and his life from passing over the river of death. 19 "And he is reproved with pain on his bed, even* with the strife of his bones continually, 20 so that* his life loathes bread, and his inner self* loathes appetizing food.* 21 His flesh is wasted away from sight, and his bones, which are invisible, are bared. 22 And he* draws near to the pit and his life to the killers. 23 "If there is a messenger beside him, a mediator, one of a thousand,* to declare to a human being his uprightness 24 so that* he is gracious to him, and he says, 'Deliver him from descending into the pit; I have found a ransom.' 25 His flesh is renewed with his youth; he returns to the days of his youthful strength. 26 He prays to God, then he accepts him, and he sees his face with a shout of joy, and he repays to the human being his righteousness. 27 "He will sing to men, and he will say, 'I have sinned and have perverted what is right, and it was not paid back to me. 28 He redeemed my life from going down into the pit, so* I will enjoy the light.'* 29 Look, God does all these things twice, three times* with a person 30 to bring his life back from the pit so that he may enjoy the light of life.*
