Job 33:14-18

Elihu Rebukes Job

¹⁴ For God _y speaks in one way,
_z and in two, though man _a does not perceive it.
¹⁵ In _b a dream, in _c a vision of _d the night,
when _c deep sleep falls on men,
while they slumber on their beds,
¹⁶ then he _e opens the ears of men
and terrifies them with warnings,
¹⁷ that he may turn man aside from his _f deed
and conceal pride from a man;
¹⁸ he keeps back his soul from the pit,
his life from _g perishing by the sword.
