Job 33:23-28
Christian Standard Bible
23 If there is an angel(A) on his side,
one mediator out of a thousand,
to tell a person what is right for him[a]
24 and to be gracious to him and say,
“Spare him from going down to the Pit;
I have found a ransom,”(B)
25 then his flesh will be healthier[b] than in his youth,
and he will return to the days of his youthful vigor.(C)
26 He will pray to God, and God will delight in him.
That person will see his face(D) with a shout of joy,
and God will restore his righteousness to him.(E)
27 He will look at men and say,
“I have sinned and perverted what was right;
yet I did not get what I deserved.[c]
28 He redeemed my soul from going down to the Pit,
and I will continue to see the light.”
Job 33:23-28
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
23 Then, if there should be for one of them an angel,
a mediator, one of a thousand,
one who declares a person upright,(A)
24 and he is gracious to that person and says,
‘Deliver him from going down into the Pit;
I have found a ransom;(B)
25 let his flesh become fresh with youth;
let him return to the days of his youthful vigor,’(C)
26 then he prays to God and is accepted by him;
he comes into his presence with joy,
and God[a] repays him for his righteousness.(D)
27 That person sings to others and says,
‘I sinned and perverted what was right,
and it was not paid back to me.(E)
28 He has redeemed my soul from going down to the Pit,
and my life shall see the light.’(F)
