The Scriptures 1998

Job 33:13-21 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

13. Why have you complained against Him? Because He does not answer all His matters?

14. For Ěl does speak once, or twice – though one does not notice it –

15. in a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls upon men, while slumbering on a bed,

16. then He opens the ears of men, and seals their instruction,

17. to turn man from his deed, and conceal pride from man.

18. He keeps back his being from the Pit, and his life from passing away by the sword.

19. And he is reproved with pain on his bed, and with unceasing distress in his bones,

20. so that his life loathes bread, and his being desirable food.

21. His flesh wastes away, and his bones which were not seen stick out.
