And he seeth His face with shouting, And He returneth to man His righteousness. 33:27 He looketh on men, and saith, `I sinned, And uprightness I have perverted, And it hath not been profitable to me. 33:28 He hath ransomed my soul From going over into the pit, And my life on the light looketh.` 33:29 Lo, all these doth God work, Twice -- thrice with man, 33:30 To bring back his soul from the pit, To be enlightened with the light of the living. 33:31 Attend, O Job, hearken to me, Keep silent, and I -- I do speak. 33:32 If there are words -- answer me, Speak, for I have a desire to justify thee. 33:33 If there are not -- hearken thou to me, Keep silent, and I teach thee wisdom.
