23 “If there is an (A)interceding angel for him,
One out of a thousand,
To remind a person of what is [a]right for him,
24 And he is gracious to him, and says,
‘Free him from (B)going down to the pit,
I have found a (C)ransom’;
25 Let his flesh become fresher than in youth,
Let him return to the days of his youthful vigor;
26 Then he will (D)pray to God, and He will accept him,
So that (E)he may see His face with joy,
And He will restore His righteousness to that person.
27 He will sing to people and say,
‘I (F)have sinned and perverted what is right,
And it is not (G)proper for me.
28 He has redeemed my soul from going to the pit,
And my life will (H)see the light.’

23 “If there is an angel as (A)mediator for him,
One out of a thousand,
To remind a man what is [a]right for him,
24 Then let him be gracious to him, and say,
‘Deliver him from (B)going down to the pit,
I have found a (C)ransom’;
25 Let his flesh become fresher than in youth,
Let him return to the days of his youthful vigor;
26 Then he will (D)pray to God, and He will accept him,
That (E)he may see His face with joy,
And He may restore His righteousness to man.
27 “He will sing to men and say,
‘I (F)have sinned and perverted what is right,
And it is not (G)proper for me.

And my life shall (H)see the light.’
