NHEB(i)
19 He is chastened also with pain on his bed, with continual strife in his bones;
20 So that his life abhors bread, and his soul choicest food.
21 His flesh is so consumed away, that it can't be seen. His bones that were not seen stick out.
22 Yes, his soul draws near to the pit, and his life to the destroyers.
23 "If there is beside him an angel, an interpreter, one among a thousand, to show to man what is right for him;
24 then he is gracious to him, and says, 'Deliver him from going down to the pit, I have found a ransom.'
25 His flesh shall be fresher than a child's. He returns to the days of his youth.
26 He prays to God, and he is favorable to him, so that he sees his face with joy. He restores to man his righteousness.
27 He sings before men, and says, 'I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it did not profit me.
28 He has redeemed my soul from going into the pit. My life shall see the light.'
