Job 33:12-19
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 33
12Behold, let me respond to you, you are not right in this, For God is greater than mankind. 13'Why do you complain to Him That He does not give an account of all His doings? 14Indeed God speaks once, Or twice, yet no one notices it. 15In a dream, a vision of the night, When deep sleep falls on people, While they slumber in their beds, 16Then He opens the ears of people, And horrifies them with warnings, 17So that He may turn a person away from bad conduct, And keep a man from pride; 18He keeps his soul back from the pit, And his life from perishing by the spear. 19' A person is also rebuked by pain in his bed, And with constant complaint in his bones,King James Version
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 33
12But I tell you that you are wrong in this matter, since God is greater than man. 13Why do you take him to court for not answering anything a person asks? 14For God speaks time and again, but a person may not notice it. 15In a dream, a vision in the night, when deep sleep comes over people as they slumber on their beds, 16he uncovers their ears and terrifies them with warnings, 17in order to turn a person from his actions and suppress the pride of a person. 18God spares his soul from the Pit, his life from crossing the river of death. 19A person may be disciplined on his bed with pain and constant distress in his bones,New Living Translation
Chapter 33
12'But you are wrong, and I will show you why. For God is greater than any human being. 13So why are you bringing a charge against him? Why say he does not respond to people’s complaints? 14For God speaks again and again, though people do not recognize it. 15He speaks in dreams, in visions of the night, when deep sleep falls on people as they lie in their beds. 16He whispers in their ears and terrifies them with warnings. 17He makes them turn from doing wrong; he keeps them from pride. 18He protects them from the grave, from crossing over the river of death.English Standard Version
Chapter 33
12"Behold, in this you are not right. I will answer you, for God is greater than man. 13Why do you contend against him, saying, ‘He will answer none of man 's words’? 14For God speaks in one way, and in two, though man does not perceive it. 15In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls on men, while they slumber on their beds, 16then he opens the ears of men and terrifies them with warnings, 17that he may turn man aside from his deed and conceal pride from a man; 18he keeps back his soul from the pit, his life from perishing by the sword. 19"Man is also rebuked with pain on his bed and with continual strife in his bones,New International Version
Chapter 33
12"But I tell you, in this you are not right, for God is greater than any mortal. 13Why do you complain to him that he responds to no one’s words ? 14For God does speak—now one way, now another— though no one perceives it. 15In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls on people as they slumber in their beds, 16he may speak in their ears and terrify them with warnings, 17to turn them from wrongdoing and keep them from pride,New King James Version
