openeth
Job 36:15
He delivereth the poor in his affliction, and openeth their ears in oppression.
Job 33:16-23
16
Then he openeth the ears of men, and sealeth their instruction,
17
That he may withdraw man from his purpose, and hide pride from man.
18
He keepeth back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword.
19
He is chastened also with pain upon his bed, and the multitude of his bones with strong pain:
20
So that his life abhorreth bread, and his soul dainty meat.
21
His flesh is consumed away, that it cannot be seen; and his bones that were not seen stick out.
22
Yea, his soul draweth near unto the grave, and his life to the destroyers.
23
