Job 33:14-22
Christian Standard Bible
14 For God speaks time and again,
but a person may not notice it.
15 In a dream, a vision(A) in the night,
when deep sleep comes over people(B)
as they slumber on their beds,
16 he uncovers their ears(C)
and terrifies them[a] with warnings,
17 in order to turn a person from his actions
and suppress the pride of a person.
18 God spares his soul from the Pit,(D)
his life from crossing the river of death.[b]
19 A person may be disciplined on his bed(E) with pain
and constant distress in his bones,(F)
20 so that he detests bread,
and his soul despises his favorite food.(G)
21 His flesh wastes away to nothing,[c]
and his unseen bones stick out.
22 He draws near to the Pit,
and his life to the executioners.
Job 33:14-22
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
14 For God speaks in one way
and in two, though people do not perceive it.(A)
15 In a dream, in a vision of the night,
when deep sleep falls on mortals,
while they slumber on their beds,(B)
16 then he opens their ears
and terrifies them with warnings,(C)
17 that he may turn them aside from their deeds
and keep them from pride,
18 to spare their souls from the Pit,
their lives from traversing the River.
19 They are also chastened with pain upon their beds
and with continual strife in their bones,(D)
20 so that their lives loathe bread
and their appetites dainty food.(E)
21 Their flesh is so wasted away that it cannot be seen,
and their bones, once invisible, now stick out.(F)
22 Their souls draw near the Pit
and their lives to those who bring death.(G)
Job 33:14-22
New International Version
14 For God does speak(A)—now one way, now another(B)—
though no one perceives it.(C)
15 In a dream,(D) in a vision(E) of the night,(F)
when deep sleep(G) falls on people
as they slumber in their beds,
16 he may speak(H) in their ears
and terrify them(I) with warnings,(J)
17 to turn them from wrongdoing
and keep them from pride,(K)
18 to preserve them from the pit,(L)
their lives from perishing by the sword.[a](M)
19 “Or someone may be chastened(N) on a bed of pain(O)
with constant distress in their bones,(P)
20 so that their body finds food(Q) repulsive
and their soul loathes the choicest meal.(R)
21 Their flesh wastes away to nothing,
and their bones,(S) once hidden, now stick out.(T)
22 They draw near to the pit,(U)
and their life to the messengers of death.[b](V)
