16Then He uncovereth the ear of men, And for their instruction sealeth:


In Context

13 Wherefore against Him hast thou striven, When for all His matters He answereth not?

14 For once doth God speak, and twice, (He doth not behold it.)

15 In a dream — a vision of night, In the falling of deep sleep on men, In slumberings on a bed.

16 Then He uncovereth the ear of men, And for their instruction sealeth:

17 To turn aside man from doing, And pride from man He concealeth.

18 He keepeth back his soul from corruption, And his life from passing away by a dart.
