Holman Christian Standard Bible

Job 33:15-21 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

15. In a dream, a vision in the night,when deep sleep falls on people as they slumber on their beds,

16. He uncovers their ears at that timeand terrifies them with warnings,

17. in order to turn a person from his actionsand suppress his pride.

18. God spares his soul from the Pit, his life from crossing the river of death.

19. A person may be disciplined on his bed with painand constant distress in his bones,

20. so that he detests bread,and his soul despises his favorite food.

21. His flesh wastes away to nothing, and his unseen bones stick out.
