Job 33:26-28
The Message
26-28 “Or, you may fall on your knees and pray—to God’s delight!
You’ll see God’s smile and celebrate,
finding yourself set right with God.
You’ll sing God’s praises to everyone you meet,
testifying, ‘I messed up my life—
and let me tell you, it wasn’t worth it.
But God stepped in and saved me from certain death.
I’m alive again! Once more I see the light!’
Job 33:26-28
English Standard Version
26 then man[a] (A)prays to God, and he accepts him;
he (B)sees his face with a shout of joy,
and he (C)restores to man his righteousness.
27 He sings before men and says:
‘I (D)sinned and perverted what was right,
and it was not repaid to me.
28 He has redeemed my (E)soul from going down (F)into the pit,
and my life shall (G)look upon the light.’
