Job 33:6-17 New English Translation (NET)

6. Look, I am just like you in relation to God;I too have been molded from clay.

7. Therefore no fear of me should terrify you,nor should my pressure be heavy on you.

8. “Indeed, you have said in my hearing(I heard the sound of the words!):

9. ‘I am pure, without transgression;I am clean and have no iniquity.

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.
