14  For God ^yspeaks in one way,

^zand in two, though man ^adoes not perceive it.

15  In ^ba dream, in ^ca vision of ^dthe night,

when ^cdeep sleep falls on men,

while they slumber on their beds,

16  then he ^eopens the ears of men

and terrifies¹ them with warnings,

17  that he may turn man aside from his ^fdeed

and conceal pride from a man;

18  he keeps back his soul from the pit,

his life from ^gperishing by the sword.
