Job 33:23-28

New Living Translation

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.’
