Job 33:6-18 - Heartlight

⁶I am just like you before God;

I was also formed from clay.

⁷Surely no fear of me should terrify you;

nor will my hand be heavy upon you.

⁸Surely you have spoken in my hearing,

and I have heard these very words:

⁹‘I am pure, without transgression;

I am clean, with no iniquity in me.

¹⁰Yet God finds occasions against me;

He counts me as His enemy.

¹¹He puts my feet in the stocks;

He watches over all my paths.’

¹²Behold, you are not right in this matter.

I will answer you, for God is greater than man.

¹³Why do you complain to Him

that He answers nothing a man asks?

¹⁴For God speaks in one way and in another,

yet no one notices.

¹⁵In a dream,

in a vision in the night,

when deep sleep falls upon men

as they slumber on their beds,

¹⁶He opens their ears

and terrifies them with warnings

¹⁷to turn a man from wrongdoing

and keep him from pride,

¹⁸to preserve his soul from the Pit

and his life from perishing by the sword.
