Job 33:23-28
American Standard Version
23 If there be with him [a]an angel,
An interpreter, one [b]among a thousand,
To show unto man [c]what is right for him;
24 [d]Then God is gracious unto him, and saith,
Deliver him from going down to the pit,
I have found a ransom.
25 His flesh shall be fresher than a child’s;
He returneth to the days of his youth.
26 He prayeth unto God, and he is favorable unto him,
So that he seeth his face with joy:
And he restoreth unto man his righteousness.
27 He [e]singeth before men, and saith,
I have sinned, and perverted that which was right,
And [f]it profited me not:
28 He hath redeemed my soul from going into the pit,
And my life shall behold the light.
Job 33:23-28
Lexham English Bible
23 “If there is a messenger beside him, a mediator, one of a thousand,[a]
to declare to a human being his uprightness
24 so that[b] he is gracious to him, and he says,
‘Deliver him from descending into the pit;
I have found a ransom.’
25 His flesh is renewed with his youth;
he returns to the days of his youthful strength.
26 He prays to God, then he accepts him,
and he sees his face with a shout of joy,
and he repays to the human being his righteousness.
27 “He will sing to men, and he will say,
‘I have sinned and have perverted what is right,
and it was not paid back to me.
28 He redeemed my life from going down into the pit,
so[c] I will enjoy the light.’[d]
