Job 33:1 Wherefore,199 Job,347 I pray thee, hear8085 my speeches,4405 and hearken238 to all my words.16972 Behold, now I have opened6605 my mouth,6310 my tongue3956 hath spoken1696 in my mouth.2441{Heb. in my palate}3 My words561shallbeof the uprightness3476 of my heart:3820 and my lips8193 shall utter4448 knowledge1847 clearly.13054 The Spirit7307 of God410 hath made6213 me, and the breath5397 of the Almighty7706 hath given me life.24215 If thou canst3201 answer7725 me, set thywords in order6186 before6440 me, stand up.33206 Behold, I am according to thy wish6310{Heb. according to thy mouth} in God's410 stead: I also am formed7169 out of the clay.2563{Heb. cut out of the clay}7 Behold, my terror367 shall not make thee afraid,1204 neither shall my hand405 be heavy3513 upon thee.
Job 33:8 Surely thou hast spoken559 in mine hearing,241{Heb. in mine ears} and I have heard8085 the voice6963 of thy words,4405saying,9 I am clean2134 without transgression,6588 I am innocent;2643 neither isthere iniquity5771 in me.
10 Behold, he findeth4672 occasions8569 against me, he counteth2803 me for his enemy,34111 He putteth7760 my feet7272 in the stocks,5465 he marketh8104 all my paths.734
Job 33:12 Behold, in this thou art not just:6663 I will answer6030 thee, that God433 is greater7235 than man.58213 Why dost thou strive7378 against him? for he giveth not account6030{Heb. he answereth not} of any of his matters.169714 For God410 speaketh1696 once,259 yea twice,8147yetman perceiveth7789 it not.
15 In a dream,2472 in a vision2384 of the night,3915 when deep8639 sleep falleth5307 upon men,582 in slumberings8572 upon the bed;490416 Then he openeth1540 the ears241{Heb. he revealeth, or uncovereth} of men,582 and sealeth2856 their instruction,456117 That he may withdraw5493 man120fromhis purpose,4639{Heb. work} and hide3680 pride1466 from man.139718 He keepeth back2820 his soul5315 from the pit,7845 and his life2416 from perishing5674 by the sword.7973{Heb. from passing by the sword}19 He is chastened3198 also with pain4341 upon his bed,4904 and the multitude72307379 of his bones6106 with strong386pain:20 So that his life2416 abhorreth2092 bread,3899 and his soul5315 dainty8378 meat.3978{Heb. meat of desire}21 His flesh1320 is consumed away,3615 that it cannot be seen;7210 and his bones6106that were not seen7200 stick out.8192820522 Yea, his soul5315 draweth near7126 unto the grave,7845 and his life2416 to the destroyers.4191
Job 33:23 If there3426 be a messenger4397 with him, an interpreter,3887 one259 among a thousand,505 to shew5046 unto man120 his uprightness:347624 Then he is gracious2603 unto him, and saith,559 Deliver6308 him from going down3381 to the pit:7845 I have found4672 a ransom.3724{Or, an atonement}25 His flesh1320 shall be fresher7375 than a child's:5290{Heb. then childhood} he shall return7725 to the days3117 of his youth:593426 He shall pray6279 unto God,433 and he will be favourable7521 unto him: and he shall see7200 his face6440 with joy:8643 for he will render7725 unto man582 his righteousness.666627 He looketh7789 upon men,582 and ifany say,559 I have sinned,2398{Or, he shall look upon men, and say, I have sinned, etc.} and perverted5753thatwhichwas right,3477 and it profited7737 me not;
28 He will deliver6299 his soul5315{Or, he hath delivered my soul etc. and my life} from going5674 into the pit,7845 and his life2416 shall see7200 the light.21629 Lo, all these things worketh6466 God410 oftentimes64717969{Heb. twice and thrice} with man,139730 To bring back7725 his soul5315 from the pit,7845 to be enlightened215 with the light216 of the living.2416
Job 33:31 Mark well,7181 O Job,347 hearken8085 unto me: hold thy peace,2790 and I will speak.169632 If thou hast3426 any thing to say,4405 answer7725 me: speak,1696 for I desire2654 to justify6663 thee.
33 If not, hearken8085 unto me: hold thy peace,2790 and I shall teach502 thee wisdom.2451
