"However, Job, please hear my speech, and listen to all my words.
See now, I have opened my mouth. My tongue has spoken in my mouth.
My words shall utter the uprightness of my heart. That which my lips know they shall speak sincerely.
The Spirit of God has made me, and the breath of the Almighty gives me life.
If you can, answer me. Set your words in order before me, and stand forth.
Behold, I am toward God even as you are. I am also formed out of the clay.
Behold, my terror shall not make you afraid, neither shall my pressure be heavy on you.

Then he opens the ears of men, and seals their instruction,
That he may withdraw man from his purpose, and hide pride from man.
He keeps back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword.
He is chastened also with pain on his bed, with continual strife in his bones;
So that his life abhors bread, and his soul dainty food.
His flesh is so consumed away, that it can't be seen. His bones that were not seen stick out.
Yes, his soul draws near to the pit, and his life to the destroyers.
"If there is beside him an angel, an interpreter, one among a thousand, to show to man what is right for him;
then God is gracious to him, and says, 'Deliver him from going down to the pit, I have found a ransom.'
His flesh shall be fresher than a child's. He returns to the days of his youth.
He prays to God, and he is favorable to him, so that he sees his face with joy. He restores to man his righteousness.
He sings before men, and says, 'I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it didn't profit me.
He has redeemed my soul from going into the pit. My life shall see the light.'
"Behold, God works all these things, twice, yes three times, with a man,
to bring back his soul from the pit, that he may be enlightened with the light of the living.
Mark well, Job, and listen to me. Hold your peace, and I will speak.
If you have anything to say, answer me. Speak, for I desire to justify you.
If not, listen to me. Hold your peace, and I will teach you wisdom."
