23. Perhaps an angel may come to their aid —one of God's thousands of angels,who remind us of our duty.
24. In mercy the angel will say, “Release them!They are not to go down to the world of the dead.Here is the ransom to set them free.”
25. Their bodies will grow young and strong again;
26. when they pray, God will answer;they will worship God with joy;God will set things right for them again.
27. Each one will say in public, “I have sinned.I have not done right, but God spared me.
28. He kept me from going to the world of the dead,and I am still alive.”
29. God does all this again and again;
30. he saves a person's life,and gives him the joy of living.
