Job 33 YLT — Job 33

1 And yet, I pray thee, O Job, Hear my speech and [to] all my words give ear. YLT — Job 33:1

2 Lo, I pray thee, I have opened my mouth, My tongue hath spoken in the palate. YLT — Job 33:2

3 Of the uprightness of my heart [are] my sayings, And knowledge have my lips clearly spoken. YLT — Job 33:3

4 The Spirit of God hath made me, And the breath of the Mighty doth quicken me. YLT — Job 33:4

5 If thou art able — answer me, Set in array before me — station thyself. YLT — Job 33:5

6 Lo, I [am], according to thy word, for God, From the clay I — I also, have been formed. YLT — Job 33:6

7 Lo, my terror doth not frighten thee, And my burden on thee is not heavy. YLT — Job 33:7

8 Surely — thou hast said in mine ears, And the sounds of words I hear: YLT — Job 33:8

9 ’Pure [am] I, without transgression, Innocent [am] I, and I have no iniquity. YLT — Job 33:9

10 Lo, occasions against me He doth find, He doth reckon me for an enemy to Him, YLT — Job 33:10

11 He doth put in the stocks my feet, He doth watch all my paths.’ YLT — Job 33:11

12 Lo, [in] this thou hast not been righteous, I answer thee, that greater is God than man. YLT — Job 33:12

13 Wherefore against Him hast thou striven, When [for] all His matters He answereth not? YLT — Job 33:13

14 For once doth God speak, and twice, (He doth not behold it.) YLT — Job 33:14

15 In a dream — a vision of night, In the falling of deep sleep on men, In slumberings on a bed. YLT — Job 33:15

16 Then He uncovereth the ear of men, And for their instruction sealeth: YLT — Job 33:16

17 To turn aside man [from] doing, And pride from man He concealeth. YLT — Job 33:17

18 He keepeth back his soul from corruption, And his life from passing away by a dart. YLT — Job 33:18

19 And he hath been reproved With pain on his bed, And the strife of his bones [is] enduring. YLT — Job 33:19

20 And his life hath nauseated bread, And his soul desirable food. YLT — Job 33:20

21 His flesh is consumed from being seen, And high are his bones, they were not seen! YLT — Job 33:21

22 And draw near to the pit doth his soul, And his life to those causing death. YLT — Job 33:22

23 If there is by him a messenger, An interpreter — one of a thousand, To declare for man his uprightness: YLT — Job 33:23

24 Then He doth favour him and saith, ‘Ransom him from going down to the pit, I have found an atonement.’ YLT — Job 33:24

25 Fresher [is] his flesh than a child's, He returneth to the days of his youth. YLT — Job 33:25

26 He maketh supplication unto God, And He accepteth him. And he seeth His face with shouting, And He returneth to man His righteousness. YLT — Job 33:26

27 He looketh on men, and saith, ‘I sinned, And uprightness I have perverted, And it hath not been profitable to me. YLT — Job 33:27

28 He hath ransomed my soul From going over into the pit, And my life on the light looketh.’ YLT — Job 33:28

29 Lo, all these doth God work, Twice — thrice with man, YLT — Job 33:29

30 To bring back his soul from the pit, To be enlightened with the light of the living. YLT — Job 33:30

31 Attend, O Job, hearken to me, Keep silent, and I — I do speak. YLT — Job 33:31

32 If there are words — answer me, Speak, for I have a desire to justify thee. YLT — Job 33:32

33 If there are not — hearken thou to me, Keep silent, and I teach thee wisdom. YLT — Job 33:33
