## Job 33:15-17 in Context (Verses 12–20 KJV)
 
 [12 ](/kjv/job/33/12) Behold, *in* this thou art not just: I will answer thee, that God is greater than man.
 
 [13 ](/kjv/job/33/13) Why dost thou strive against him? for he giveth not account of any of his matters.*
 
 [14 ](/kjv/job/33/14) For God speaketh once, yea twice, *yet man* perceiveth it not.
 
 [15 ](/kjv/job/33/15) In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed;
 
 [16 ](/kjv/job/33/16) Then he openeth the ears of men, and sealeth their instruction,*
 
 [17 ](/kjv/job/33/17) That he may withdraw man *from his* purpose, and hide pride from man.*
 
 [18 ](/kjv/job/33/18) He keepeth back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword.*
 
 [19 ](/kjv/job/33/19) He is chastened also with pain upon his bed, and the multitude of his bones with strong *pain:*
 
 [20 ](/kjv/job/33/20) So that his life abhorreth bread, and his soul dainty meat.*
 
[Job 32](/kjv/job/32) [Job 34](/kjv/job/34)
