11. He putteth my feet in the stocks, he marketh all my paths.
12. Behold, I will answer thee, in this thou art not just; for God is greater than man.
13. Why dost thou strive against him? for he giveth not account of any of his matters.
14. For God speaketh once, yea twice, though man regardeth it not.
15. In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed;
16. Then he openeth the ears of men, and sealeth their instruction,
17. That he may withdraw man from his purpose, and hide pride from man;
18. He keepeth 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 with continual strife in his bones:
20. So that his life abhorreth bread, and his soul dainty meat.
21. His flesh is consumed away, that it cannot be seen; and his bones that were not seen stick out.
22. Yea, his soul draweth near unto the pit, and his life to the destroyers.
23. If there be with him an angel, an interpreter, one among a thousand, to shew unto man what is right for him;
24. Then he is gracious unto him, and saith, Deliver him from going down to the pit, I have found a ransom.
