22His soul draws near to the pit, and his life to the messengers of death.


In Context

19 Or a man may be chastened on a bed of pain with constant distress in his bones,

20 so that his very being finds food repulsive and his soul loathes the choicest meal.

21 His flesh wastes away to nothing, and his bones, once hidden, now stick out.

22 His soul draws near to the pit, and his life to the messengers of death.

23 "Yet if there is an angel on his side as a mediator, one out of a thousand, to tell a man what is right for him,

24 to be gracious to him and say, 'Spare him from going down to the pit ; I have found a ransom for him'-
