Job 33:23–24

If there be for him an angel,

a mediator, one of the thousand,

to declare to man what is right for him,

and he is merciful to him, and says,

‘Deliver him from going down into the pit;

I have found a ransom;

Yet if there is an angel at their side,

a messenger, one out of a thousand,

sent to tell them how to be upright,

and he is gracious to that person and says to God,

‘Spare them from going down to the pit;

I have found a ransom for them—

If there is an angel on his side,

one mediator out of a thousand,

to tell a person what is right for him

and to be gracious to him and say,

“Spare him from going down to the Pit;

I have found a ransom,”

“But if an angel from heaven appears—

a special messenger to intercede for a person

and declare that he is upright—

he will be gracious and say,

‘Rescue him from the grave,

for I have found a ransom for his life.’

“If there is a messenger beside him, a mediator, one of a thousand,

to declare to a human being his uprightness

so that he is gracious to him, and he says,

‘Deliver him from descending into the pit;

I have found a ransom.’
