Job 33:14-18

New King James Version

^14 (A)For God may speak in one way, or in another,
Yet man does not perceive it.
^15 (B)In a dream, in a vision of the night,
When deep sleep falls upon men,
While slumbering on their beds,
^16 (C)Then He opens the ears of men,
And seals their instruction.
¹⁷ In order to turn man from his deed,
And conceal pride from man,
¹⁸ He keeps back his soul from the Pit,
And his life from ^[a]perishing by the sword.
