15*At night when people are asleep,

God speaks in dreams and visions.

16He makes them listen to what he says,

and they are frightened at his warnings.

17God speaks to make them stop their sinning

and to save them from becoming proud.

18He will not let them be destroyed;

he saves them from death itself.

In other versions

ESVEnglish Standard Version

In a dream, in a vision of the night,

when deep sleep falls on men,

while they slumber on their beds,

then he opens the ears of men

and terrifies them with warnings,

that he may turn man aside from his deed

and conceal pride from a man;

he keeps back his soul from the pit,

his life from perishing by the sword.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

In a dream, in a vision of the night,

when deep sleep falls on people

as they slumber in their beds,

he may speak in their ears

and terrify them with warnings,

to turn them from wrongdoing

and keep them from pride,

to preserve them from the pit,

their lives from perishing by the sword.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

In a dream, a vision in the night,

when deep sleep comes over people

as they slumber on their beds,

he uncovers their ears

and terrifies them with warnings,

in order to turn a person from his actions

and suppress the pride of a person.

God spares his soul from the Pit,

his life from crossing the river of death.

NLTNew Living Translation

He speaks in dreams, in visions of the night,

when deep sleep falls on people

as they lie in their beds.

He whispers in their ears

and terrifies them with warnings.

He makes them turn from doing wrong;

he keeps them from pride.

He protects them from the grave,

from crossing over the river of death.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

“In a dream, a vision of the night,

when a deep sleep falls on men slumbering on their bed,

then he opens the ear of men,

and he frightens them with a warning

to turn human beings aside from their deeds,

and he keeps man from pride.

He spares his life from the pit

and his life from passing over the river of death.

KJV 1900King James Version

In a dream, in a vision of the night,

When deep sleep falleth upon men,

In slumberings upon the bed;

Then he openeth the ears of men,

And sealeth their instruction,

That he may withdraw man from his purpose,

And hide pride from man.

He keepeth back his soul from the pit,

And his life from perishing by the sword.
