Job 33:6-18
English Standard Version
6 Behold, I am toward God as you are;
I too was pinched off from a piece of (A)clay.
7 Behold, no (B)fear of me need terrify you;
my (C)pressure will not be heavy upon you.
8 “Surely you have spoken in my ears,
and I have heard the sound of your words.
9 You say, ‘I am (D)pure, without (E)transgression;
I am clean, and there is no iniquity in me.
10 Behold, he finds occasions against me,
he (F)counts me as his enemy,
11 he (G)puts my feet in the stocks
and (H)watches all my paths.’
12 “Behold, in this you are not right. I will answer you,
for God is greater than man.
13 Why do you (I)contend against him,
saying, ‘He (J)will answer none of man's[a] words’?[b]
14 For God (K)speaks in one way,
(L)and in two, though man (M)does not perceive it.
15 In (N)a dream, in (O)a vision of (P)the night,
when (Q)deep sleep falls on men,
while they slumber on their beds,
16 then he (R)opens the ears of men
and terrifies[c] them with warnings,
17 that he may turn man aside from his (S)deed
and conceal pride from a man;
18 he keeps back his soul from the pit,
his life from (T)perishing by the sword.
Job 33:6-18
New International Version
6 I am the same as you in God’s sight;(A)
I too am a piece of clay.(B)
7 No fear of me should alarm you,
nor should my hand be heavy on you.(C)
8 “But you have said in my hearing—
I heard the very words—
9 ‘I am pure,(D) I have done no wrong;(E)
I am clean and free from sin.(F)
10 Yet God has found fault with me;
he considers me his enemy.(G)
11 He fastens my feet in shackles;(H)
he keeps close watch on all my paths.’(I)
12 “But I tell you, in this you are not right,
for God is greater than any mortal.(J)
13 Why do you complain to him(K)
that he responds to no one’s words[a]?(L)
14 For God does speak(M)—now one way, now another(N)—
though no one perceives it.(O)
15 In a dream,(P) in a vision(Q) of the night,(R)
when deep sleep(S) falls on people
as they slumber in their beds,
16 he may speak(T) in their ears
and terrify them(U) with warnings,(V)
17 to turn them from wrongdoing
and keep them from pride,(W)
18 to preserve them from the pit,(X)
their lives from perishing by the sword.[b](Y)
Job 31:35

35 Oh, that I had one to hear me!
(Here is my signature! Let the Almighty (A)answer me!)

Job 23:3-7
English Standard Version
3 Oh, (A)that I knew where I might find him,
that I might come even to his (B)seat!
4 I would (C)lay my case before him
and fill my mouth with arguments.
5 I would know what he would answer me
and understand what he would say to me.
6 Would he (D)contend with me in the greatness of his power?
No; he would pay attention to me.
7 There an upright man could argue with him,
and I would be acquitted forever by my judge.
Job 23:3-7
New International Version
3 If only I knew where to find him;
if only I could go to his dwelling!(A)
4 I would state my case(B) before him
and fill my mouth with arguments.(C)
5 I would find out what he would answer me,(D)
and consider what he would say to me.
6 Would he vigorously oppose me?(E)
No, he would not press charges against me.(F)
7 There the upright(G) can establish their innocence before him,(H)
and there I would be delivered forever from my judge.(I)
