Job 33:23-28
Authorized (King James) Version
23 If there be a messenger with him, an interpreter,
one among a thousand, to shew unto man his uprightness:
24 then he 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 shall return to the days of his youth:
26 he shall pray unto God,
and he will be favourable unto him:
and he shall see his face with joy:
for he will render unto man his righteousness.
27 He looketh upon men, and if any say, I have sinned,
and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not;
28 he will deliver his soul from going into the pit,
and his life shall see the light.
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.
