Verse 17 is found in chapter 33 of Job. Elihu argues that God speaks in different ways and that human beings often fail to perceive his message. He mentions dreams, visions, and suffering as means through which God may turn a person away from evil. This interpretation introduces an educational function of suffering, different from the simple retribution defended earlier.
