Job 33:22-24

Modern English Version

²² Yes, his soul draws near to the grave,
    and his life to the executioners.
²³ If there is a messenger for him,
    an interpreter, one among a thousand,
    to show to man what is right for him,
²⁴ then He is gracious to him, and says,
    ‘Deliver him from going down to the pit;
    I have found a ransom.’
