14. For God speaks once, yea twice, yet man perceives it not.
15. In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls upon men, in slumberings upon the bed;
16. Then he opens the ears of men, and seals their instruction,
17. That he may turn man from his purpose, and hide pride from man.
18. He keeps back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword.
19. He is chastened also with pain upon his bed, and the multitude of his bones with strong pain:
20. So that his life abhors bread, and his soul the choicest food.
21. His flesh is consumed away, that it cannot be seen; and his bones that were not seen now stick out.
