Job 33:14-18
American Standard Version
14 For God speaketh [a]once,
Yea twice, though man regardeth it not.
15 In a dream, in a vision of the night,
When deep sleep falleth upon men,
In slumberings upon the bed;
16 Then he [b]openeth the ears of men,
And sealeth their instruction,
17 [c]That he may withdraw man from his purpose,
And hide pride from man;
18 [d]He keepeth back his soul from the pit,
And his life from perishing by the [e]sword.

New American Standard Bible 1995
14 “Indeed (A)God speaks once,
Or twice, yet no one notices it.
15 “In a (B)dream, a vision of the night,
When sound sleep falls on men,
While they slumber in their beds,
16 Then (C)He opens the ears of men,
And seals their instruction,
17 That He may turn man aside from his conduct,
And [a]keep man from pride;
18 He (D)keeps back his soul from the pit,
And his life from [b]passing over (E)into Sheol.

15 In a dream,(D) in a vision(E) of the night,(F)

as they slumber in their beds,
16 he may speak(H) in their ears
and terrify them(I) with warnings,(J)

and keep them from pride,(K)
18 to preserve them from the pit,(L)
their lives from perishing by the sword.[a](M)
