10. Yet God finds occasions with me;he regards me as his enemy!
11. He puts my feet in shackles;he watches closely all my paths.’
12. Now in this, you are not right – I answer you,for God is greater than a human being.
13. Why do you contend against him,that he does not answer all a person’s words?
14. “For God speaks, the first time in one way,the second time in another, though a person does not perceive it.
15. In a dream, a night vision,when deep sleep falls on peopleas they sleep in their beds.
16. Then he gives a revelation to people,and terrifies them with warnings,
17. to turn a person from his sin,and to cover a person’s pride.
18. He spares a person’s life from corruption,his very life from crossing over the river.
19. Or a person is chastened by pain on his bed,and with the continual strife of his bones,
20. so that his life loathes food,and his soul rejects appetizing fare.
