Job 33:16

Read in context

Job 33:14–18 · Berean Standard Bible

14 For God speaks in one way and in another, yet no one notices.

15 In a dream, in a vision in the night, when deep sleep falls upon men as they slumber on their beds,

16 He opens their ears and terrifies them with warnings

17 to turn a man from wrongdoing and keep him from pride,

18 to preserve his soul from the Pit and his life from perishing by the sword.
