Job 33:18

Read in context

Job 33:16–20 · Berean Standard Bible

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.

19 A man is also chastened on his bed with pain and constant distress in his bones,

20 so that he detests his bread, and his soul loathes his favorite food.
