²⁵ I know that my redeemer^[a](A) lives,^(B)
    and that in the end he will stand on the earth.^[b]
26 And after my skin has been destroyed,
    yet^[c] in^[d] my flesh I will see God;^(C)
27 I myself will see him
    with my own eyes^(D)—I, and not another.
    How my heart yearns^(E) within me!

²³ Yet if there is an angel at their side,
    a messenger,^(A) one out of a thousand,
    sent to tell them how to be upright,^(B)
24 and he is gracious to that person and says to God,
    ‘Spare them from going down to the pit;^(C)
    I have found a ransom for them^(D)—
²⁵ let their flesh be renewed^(E) like a child’s;
    let them be restored as in the days of their youth’^(F)—
²⁶ then that person can pray to God and find favor with him,^(G)
    they will see God’s face and shout for joy;^(H)
    he will restore them to full well-being.^(I)
