Job 33:12-22
New International Version
12 “But I tell you, in this you are not right,
for God is greater than any mortal.(A)
13 Why do you complain to him(B)
that he responds to no one’s words[a]?(C)
14 For God does speak(D)—now one way, now another(E)—
though no one perceives it.(F)
15 In a dream,(G) in a vision(H) of the night,(I)
when deep sleep(J) falls on people
as they slumber in their beds,
16 he may speak(K) in their ears
and terrify them(L) with warnings,(M)
17 to turn them from wrongdoing
and keep them from pride,(N)
18 to preserve them from the pit,(O)
their lives from perishing by the sword.[b](P)
19 “Or someone may be chastened(Q) on a bed of pain(R)
with constant distress in their bones,(S)
20 so that their body finds food(T) repulsive
and their soul loathes the choicest meal.(U)
21 Their flesh wastes away to nothing,
and their bones,(V) once hidden, now stick out.(W)
22 They draw near to the pit,(X)
and their life to the messengers of death.[c](Y)
