Bible verse
His flesh wastes away from sight, and his hidden bones protrude.
Job 33:21 · BSB
The verses around it, from Job 33.
17 to turn a man from wrongdoing and keep him from pride,
18 to preserve his soul from the Pit and his life from perishing by the sword.
19 A man is also chastened on his bed with pain and constant distress in his bones,
20 so that he detests his bread, and his soul loathes his favorite food.
21 His flesh wastes away from sight, and his hidden bones protrude.
22 He draws near to the Pit, and his life to the messengers of death.
23 Yet if there is a messenger on his side, one mediator in 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 his ransom,’
25 then his flesh is refreshed like a child’s; he returns to the days of his youth.
