Prompt

Job 33: Elihu says God speaks in a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls upon men: a man chastened with pain on his bed draws near to the grave, but if there be a messenger with him, an interpreter, then God is gracious and says, deliver him from going down to the pit, I have found a ransom; his flesh shall be fresher than a child's. A gaunt, sick man lies large and central asleep on a low bed in a simple stone room at night, his face easing into peace, while a tall angel with great white feathered wings, in a plain white robe, kneels beside the bed with one hand resting gently on his shoulder; soft warm golden light radiates from the angel and fills the room, mingling with the glow of a small oil lamp. Style: a blend of photo-realism and cinema, like a still from a big-budget film. Bright, rich, saturated, luminous colour, clear daylight or glowing golden light even in dramatic scenes, never murky or muddy, crisp detail, real human faces full of emotion, shallow depth of field, subtle film grain. Simple, uncluttered composition: ONE clear scene from this chapter, with the chapter's main character or characters large, close and central in the upper and middle frame, and a simple background. No montage, no collage, no inset vignettes, no crowd of small figures competing for attention. Historically accurate ancient Near Eastern clothing, architecture and landscape. Keep the bottom quarter of the frame simple and uncluttered (ground, water or sky) so a large chapter number can be set over it. Absolutely no text, no letters, no words, no numbers, no logos, no watermark, no border, no frame.
