Job 33:18-24

18He keepeth back his soul from the pit, and his life from passing away by the sword.

19He is chastened also with pain upon his bed, and with constant strife in his bones;

20And his life abhorreth bread, and his soul dainty food;

21His flesh is consumed away from view, and his bones that were not seen stick out;

22And his soul draweth near to the pit, and his life to the destroyers.

23If there be a messenger with him, an interpreter, one among a thousand, to shew unto man his duty;

24Then he will be gracious unto him, and say, Deliver him from going down to the pit: I have found a ransom.
