Job 33:19–28

19He is chastened also with pain upon his bed,

And with continual strife in his bones;

20So that his life abhorreth bread,

And his soul dainty food.

21His flesh is consumed away, that it cannot be seen;

And his bones that were not seen stick out.

22Yea, his soul draweth near unto the pit,

And his life to the destroyers.

23If there be with him an angel,

An interpreter, one among a thousand,

To show unto man what is right for him;

24Then God is gracious unto him, and saith,

Deliver him from going down to the pit,

I have found a ransom.

25His flesh shall be fresher than a child’s;

He returneth to the days of his youth.

26He prayeth unto God, and he is favorable unto him,

So that he seeth his face with joy:

And he restoreth unto man his righteousness.

27He singeth before men, and saith,

I have sinned, and perverted that which was right,

And it profited me not:

28He hath redeemed my soul from going into the pit,

And my life shall behold the light.
