• 1. "But now, Job, listen to my words; pay attention to everything I say.

• 2. I am about to open my mouth; my words are on the tip of my tongue.

• 3. My words come from an upright heart; my lips sincerely speak what I know.

• 4. The Spirit of God has made me; the breath of the Almighty gives me life.

• 5. Answer me then, if you can; prepare yourself and confront me.

• 6. I am just like you before God; I too have been taken from clay.

• 7. No fear of me should alarm you, nor should my hand be heavy upon you.

• 8. "But you have said in my hearing--I heard the very words--

• 9. 'I am pure and without sin; I am clean and free from guilt.

• 10. Yet God has found fault with me; he considers me his enemy.

• 11. He fastens my feet in shackles; he keeps close watch on all my paths.'

• 12. "But I tell you, in this you are not right, for God is greater than man.

• 13. Why do you complain to him that he answers none of man's words?

• 14. For God does speak--now one way, now another--though man may not perceive it.

• 15. In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls on men as they slumber in their beds,

• 16. he may speak in their ears and terrify them with warnings,

• 17. to turn man from wrongdoing and keep him from pride,

• 18. to preserve his soul from the pit, his life from perishing by the sword.

• 19. Or a man may be chastened on a bed of pain with constant distress in his bones,

• 20. so that his very being finds food repulsive and his soul loathes the choicest meal.

• 21. His flesh wastes away to nothing, and his bones, once hidden, now stick out.

• 22. His soul draws near to the pit, and his life to the messengers of death.

• 23. "Yet if there is an angel on his side as a mediator, one out of a thousand, to tell a man what is right for him,

• 24. to be gracious to him and say, 'Spare him from going down to the pit; I have found a ransom for him'--

• 25. then his flesh is renewed like a child's; it is restored as in the days of his youth.

• 26. He prays to God and finds favor with him, he sees God's face and shouts for joy; he is restored by God to his righteous state.

• 27. Then he comes to men and says, 'I sinned, and perverted what was right, but I did not get what I deserved.

• 28. He redeemed my soul from going down to the pit, and I will live to enjoy the light.'

• 29. "God does all these things to a man--twice, even three times--

• 30. to turn back his soul from the pit, that the light of life may shine on him.

• 31. "Pay attention, Job, and listen to me; be silent, and I will speak.

• 32. If you have anything to say, answer me; speak up, for I want you to be cleared.

• 33. But if not, then listen to me; be silent, and I will teach you wisdom."
