Job 33:19-28
New Living Translation
19 “Or God disciplines people with pain on their sickbeds,
with ceaseless aching in their bones.
20 They lose their appetite
for even the most delicious food.
21 Their flesh wastes away,
and their bones stick out.
22 They are at death’s door;
the angels of death wait for them.
23 “But if an angel from heaven appears—
a special messenger to intercede for a person
and declare that he is upright—
24 he will be gracious and say,
‘Rescue him from the grave,
for I have found a ransom for his life.’
25 Then his body will become as healthy as a child’s,
firm and youthful again.
26 When he prays to God,
he will be accepted.
And God will receive him with joy
and restore him to good standing.
27 He will declare to his friends,
‘I sinned and twisted the truth,
but it was not worth it.[a]
28 God rescued me from the grave,
and now my life is filled with light.’

Job 33:19-28
New International Version
19 “Or someone may be chastened(A) on a bed of pain(B)
with constant distress in their bones,(C)
20 so that their body finds food(D) repulsive
and their soul loathes the choicest meal.(E)
21 Their flesh wastes away to nothing,
and their bones,(F) once hidden, now stick out.(G)
22 They draw near to the pit,(H)
and their life to the messengers of death.[a](I)
23 Yet if there is an angel at their side,
a messenger,(J) one out of a thousand,
sent to tell them how to be upright,(K)
24 and he is gracious to that person and says to God,
‘Spare them from going down to the pit;(L)
I have found a ransom for them(M)—
25 let their flesh be renewed(N) like a child’s;
let them be restored as in the days of their youth’(O)—
26 then that person can pray to God and find favor with him,(P)
they will see God’s face and shout for joy;(Q)
he will restore them to full well-being.(R)
27 And they will go to others and say,
‘I have sinned,(S) I have perverted what is right,(T)
but I did not get what I deserved.(U)
28 God has delivered(V) me from going down to the pit,(W)
and I shall live to enjoy the light of life.’(X)
