23. “If there is a messenger beside him, a mediator, one of a thousand, to declare to a human being his uprightness
24. so that he is gracious to him, and he says, ‘Deliver him from descending into the pit; I have found a ransom.’
25. His flesh is renewed with his youth; he returns to the days of his youthful strength.
26. He prays to God, then he accepts him, and he sees his face with a shout of joy, and he repays to the human being his righteousness.
27. “He will sing to men, and he will say, ‘I have sinned and have perverted what is right, and it was not paid back to me.
28. He redeemed my life from going down into the pit, so I will enjoy the light.’
29. Look, God does all these things twice, three times with a person
30. to bring his life back from the pit so that he may enjoy the light of life.
31. “Listen attentively, Job; listen to me; be silent, and I will speak.
32. If you have anything to say, answer me; speak, for I desire to justify you.
33. If not, you listen to me; be silent, and I will teach you wisdom.”
