Job 33:15-21 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

15. "In a dream, a vision of the night, When sound sleep falls on men, While they slumber in their beds,

16. Then He opens the ears of men, And seals their instruction,

17. That He may turn man aside from his conduct, And keep man from pride;

18. He keeps back his soul from the pit, And his life from passing over into Sheol.

19. "Man is also chastened with pain on his bed, And with unceasing complaint in his bones;

20. So that his life loathes bread, And his soul favorite food.

21. "His flesh wastes away from sight, And his bones which were not seen stick out.
