Job 33:18 in context

1. 16Then he opens the ears of men,
   and seals their instruction,
2. 17that he may withdraw man from his purpose,
   and hide pride from man.
3. 18He keeps back his soul from the pit,
   and his life from perishing by the sword.
4. 19He is chastened also with pain on his bed,
   with continual strife in his bones,
5. 20so that his life abhors bread,
   and his soul dainty food.
