Job 33:23-28
International Standard Version
God Delivers through His Ransom
23 “If there’s a messenger[a] appointed to mediate for Job[b]
—one out of a thousand—
to represent the man’s integrity on his behalf,
24 to show favor to him and to plead,
‘Deliver him from having to go down to the Pit[c]—
I know where his ransom is!’
25 Let his flesh be rejuvenated[d] as he was in his youth!
Let him recover the strength of his youth.
26 Let him pray to God
and he will accept him;
he will appear before him with joyful shouts!”
The Song of the Ransomed
27 “He’ll sing to mankind with these words:
‘I’ve sinned. I have twisted what is right.
Yet he has not repaid me like I deserve.[e]
28 He has redeemed my soul from going down to the Pit;[f]
my life will see the light.’
