16 then he opens the ears of men and seals their instruction,
17 that he may withdraw the man from his own work and cover the man from pride.
18 Thus he keeps back his soul from the pit and his life from perishing by the sword.
19 He is chastened also upon his bed with strong pain in all his bones,
20 so that his life abhors bread and his soul dainty food.
21 His flesh is consumed away, that it cannot be seen; and his bones that were not seen stick out.
22 His soul shall draw near to the grave, and his life to those that would bury him.
