Job 33:23-28
World English Bible
23 “If there is beside him an angel,
an interpreter, one among a thousand,
to show to man what is right for him;
24 then God is gracious to him, and says,
‘Deliver him from going down to the pit,
I have found a ransom.’
25 His flesh will be fresher than a child’s.
He returns to the days of his youth.
26 He prays to God, and he is favorable to him,
so that he sees his face with joy.
He restores to man his righteousness.
27 He sings before men, and says,
‘I have sinned, and perverted that which was right,
and it didn’t profit me.
28 He has redeemed my soul from going into the pit.
My life will 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)
