Job 33:19-25
Holman Christian Standard Bible
19 A person may be disciplined on his bed(A) with pain
and constant distress in his bones,(B)
20 so that he detests bread,
and his soul despises his favorite food.(C)
21 His flesh wastes away to nothing,[a]
and his unseen bones stick out.
22 He draws near to the Pit,
and his life to the executioners.
23 If there is an angel(D) on his side,
one mediator out of a thousand,
to tell a person what is right for him[b]
24 and to be gracious to him and say,
“Spare him from going down to the Pit;
I have found a ransom,”(E)
25 then his flesh will be healthier[c] than in his youth,
and he will return to the days of his youthful vigor.(F)
Job 33:19-25
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)—
