22 They draw near to the pit,

and their life to the messengers of death.

22 Yea, his soul draweth near unto the grave,

And his life to the destroyers.

22 They are at death’s door;

the angels of death wait for them.

22 Yes, his soul draws near the Pit,

And his life to the executioners.

22 They are near death,

and their life is almost over.

22 Yea, his soul draweth near unto the pit,

And his life to the destroyers.

22 And his soul draweth near to the pit, and his life to the destroyers.

22 Their souls approach the pit. 

Their lives come close to those already dead. 

22 He draws near to the Pit,

and his life to the executioners.

22 Their souls draw near the Pit,

and their lives to those who bring death.

22 And he draws near to the pit

and his life to the killers.

22 He might approach the very edge of the grave.

The messengers of death might come for him.

22 “Then his soul draws near to the pit,

And his life to those who bring death.
