Job 33:23-30 - A Third Way God Warns People
23 If there is by him a messenger, An interpreter -- one of a thousand, To declare for man his uprightness: 24 Then He doth favour him and saith, 'Ransom him from going down to the pit, I have found an atonement.' 25 Fresher is his flesh than a child's, He returneth to the days of his youth. 26 He maketh supplication unto God, And He accepteth him. And he seeth His face with shouting, And He returneth to man His righteousness. 27 He looketh on men, and saith, 'I sinned, And uprightness I have perverted, And it hath not been profitable to me. 28 He hath ransomed my soul From going over into the pit, And my life on the light looketh.' 29 Lo, all these doth God work, Twice -- thrice with man, 30 To bring back his soul from the pit, To be enlightened with the light of the living.
