New Testament

Job 33:8-17 New English Translation (NET)

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.
