19 Or a person may be disciplined by painwhile in bed, bones ever aching
20 until a person loathes food,an appetite rejects a delicacy;
21 the flesh wastes away, no longer visible;the bones, once hidden, protrude.
22 A life approaches the pit;its very being draws near the death dealers.
23 Surely there’s a messenger for this person,a mediator, one out of a thousandto declare one’s integrity to another
24 so that God has compassion on that person and says,"Rescue this one from going down to the pit;I have found a ransom."
25 That person’s flesh is renewed like a child’s;they regain their youth.
