< Job 33 >

1 And but hear please O Job words my and all words my give ear to!
Hear therefore, O Job, my speeches, and hearken to all my words.
2 Here! please I open mouth my it speaks tongue my on palate my.
Behold now I have opened my mouth, let my tongue speak within my jaws.
3 [are] [the] uprightness of Heart my words my and [the] knowledge of lips my purified they speak.
My words are from my upright heart, and my lips shall speak a pure sentence.
4 [the] spirit of God it has made me and [the] breath of [the] Almighty it gives life me.
The spirit of God made me, and the breath of the Almighty gave me life.
5 If you will be able respond to me arrange! before me take your stand!
If thou canst, answer me, and stand up against my face.
6 Here! I [am] like mouth your to God from clay I was nipped off also I.
Behold God hath made me as well as thee, and of the same clay I also was formed.
7 Here! dread of me not it will terrify you and pressure my on you not it will be heavy.
But yet let not my wonder terrify thee, and let not my eloquence be burdensome to thee.
8 Surely you have spoken in ears my and [the] sound of words I heard.
Now thou has said in my hearing, and I have heard the voice of thy words:
9 [am] pure I not transgression [am] innocent I and not iniquity [belongs] to me.
I am clean, and without sin: I am unspotted, and there is no iniquity in me.
10 Here! occasions on me he finds he considers me to an enemy of him.
Because he hath found complaints against me, therefore he hath counted me for his enemy.
11 He puts in the stock[s] feet my he watches all paths my.
He hath put my feet in the stocks, he hath observed all my paths.
12 Here! this not you are in [the] right I will answer you for he is great God more than a human.
Now this is the thing in which thou art not justified: I will answer thee, that God is greater than man.
13 Why? against him have you contended that all words his not he answers.
Dost thou strive against him, because he hath not answered thee to all words?
14 For on one [occasion] he speaks God and on two [occasions] not anyone perceives it.
God speaketh once, and repeateth not the selfsame thing the second time.
15 In a dream - a vision of [the] night when falls deep sleep on people in slumber on a bed.
By a dream in a vision by night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, and they are sleeping in their beds:
16 Then he will uncover [the] ear of people and with discipline their he will seal.
Then he openeth the ears of men, and teaching instructeth them in what they are to learn.
17 To turn aside a person a deed and pride from a man he will cover.
That he may withdraw a man from the things he is doing, and may deliver him from pride.
18 He will keep back life his from [the] pit and life his from passing away by missile.
Rescuing his soul from corruption: and his life from passing to the sword.
19 And he is chastened with pain on bed his (and [the] multitude of *Q(K)*) bones his [is] constant.
He rebuketh also by sorrow in the bed, and he maketh all his bones to wither.
20 And it loathes it life his bread and self his food of desire.
Bread becometh abominable to him in his life, and to his soul the meat which before he desired.
21 It wastes away flesh his from sight (and they are laid bare *Q(K)*) bones his [which] not they were seen.
His flesh shall be consumed away, and his bones that were covered shall be made bare.
22 And it drew near to the pit self his and life his to [those who] bring death.
His soul hath drawn near to corruption, and his life to the destroyers.
23 If there on him - [is] an angel a mediator one of a thousand to tell to anyone uprightness his.
If there shall be an angel speaking for him, one among thousands, to declare man’s uprightness,
24 And he showed favor to him and he said deliver him from going down [the] pit I have found a ransom.
He shall have mercy on him, and shall say: Deliver him, that he may not go down to corruption: I have found wherein I may be merciful to him.
25 It grows fresh flesh his more than youth he returns to [the] days of youth his.
His flesh is consumed with punishment, let him return to the days of his youth.
26 He prays to God - and he accepted him and he saw face his with a shout of joy and he restored to a person righteousness his.
He shall pray to God, and he will be gracious to him: and he shall see his face with joy, and he will render to man his justice.
27 He watches - over people and he said I have sinned and upright[ness] I have perverted and not it was equal to me.
He shall look upon men, and shall say: I have sinned, and indeed I have offended, and I have not received what I have deserved.
28 He has ransomed (self his *Q(K)*) from passing on in the pit (and life his *Q(K)*) on the light it will look.
He hath delivered his soul from going into destruction, that it may live and see the light.
29 Here! all these [things] he does God two times three [times] with a man.
Behold, all these things God worketh three times within every one.
30 To bring back self his from [the] pit to be lighted up by [the] light of life.
That he may withdraw their souls from corruption, and enlighten them with the light of the living.
31 Pay attention O Job listen to me keep quiet and I I will speak.
Attend, Job, and hearken to me: and hold thy peace, whilst I speak.
32 If there [are] words respond to me speak for I desire to justify you.
But if thou hast any thing to say, answer me, speak: for I would have thee to appear just.
33 If not you listen to me keep quiet and I will teach you wisdom.
And if thou have not, hear me: hold thy peace, and I will teach thee wisdom.
