23. “But if an angel from heaven appears—a special messenger to intercede for a personand declare that he is upright—
24. he will be gracious and say,‘Rescue him from the grave,for I have found a ransom for his life.’
25. Then his body will become as healthy as a child’s,firm and youthful again.
26. When he prays to God,he will be accepted.And God will receive him with joyand restore him to good standing.
27. He will declare to his friends,‘I sinned and twisted the truth,but it was not worth it.
28. God rescued me from the grave,and now my life is filled with light.’
29. “Yes, God does these thingsagain and again for people.
