5 If thou canst answer me, set thy words in order before me, stand up. WBS — Job 33:5
6 Behold, I am according to thy wish in God’s stead: I also am formed out of the clay. WBS — Job 33:6

8 Surely thou hast spoken in my hearing, and I have heard the voice of thy words, saying, WBS — Job 33:8
9 I am clean without transgression, I am innocent; neither is there iniquity in me. WBS — Job 33:9
10 Behold, he findeth occasions against me, he counteth me for his enemy, WBS — Job 33:10

12 Behold, in this thou art not just: I will answer thee, that God is greater than man. WBS — Job 33:12

16 Then he openeth the ears of men, and sealeth their instruction, WBS — Job 33:16
17 That he may withdraw man from his purpose, and hide pride from man. WBS — Job 33:17
18 He keepeth back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword. WBS — Job 33:18
19 He is chastened also with pain upon his bed, and the multitude of his bones with strong pain: WBS — Job 33:19

23 If there is a messenger with him, an interpreter, one among a thousand, to show to man his uprightness: WBS — Job 33:23
24 Then he is gracious to him, and saith, Deliver him from going down to the pit: I have found a ransom. WBS — Job 33:24
25 His flesh shall be fresher than a child’s: he will return to the days of his youth: WBS — Job 33:25
26 He shall pray to God, and he will be favorable to him: and he shall see his face with joy: for he will render to man his righteousness. WBS — Job 33:26
27 He looketh upon men, and if any shall say, I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not; WBS — Job 33:27
