- His flesh is consumed away, that it cannot be seen; and his bones that were not seen stick out.
- Yea, his soul draweth near unto the grave, and his life to the destroyers.
- If there be a messenger with him, an interpreter, one among a thousand, to shew unto man his uprightness:
- Then he is gracious unto him, and saith, Deliver him from going down to the pit: I have found a ransom.
- His flesh shall be fresher than a child's: he shall return to the days of his youth:
|
- His flesh wastes away to nothing, and his bones, once hidden, now stick out.
- His soul draws near to the pit, and his life to the messengers of death.
- "Yet if there is an angel on his side as a mediator, one out of a thousand, to tell a man what is right for him,
- to be gracious to him and say, 'Spare him from going down to the pit ; I have found a ransom for him'-
- then his flesh is renewed like a child's; it is restored as in the days of his youth.
