| 1[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 1Then Job answered the LORD and said, |
| 2[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 2"I know that You can do all things, And that no purpose of Yours can be thwarted. |
| 3[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 3'Who is this that hides counsel without knowledge?' "Therefore I have declared that which I did not understand, Things too wonderful for me, which I did not know." |
| 4[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 4'Hear, now, and I will speak; I will ask You, and You instruct me.' |
| 5[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 5"I have heard of You by the hearing of the ear; But now my eye sees You; |
| 6[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 6Therefore I retract, And I repent in dust and ashes." |
| 7[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 7It came about after the LORD had spoken these words to Job, that the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite, "My wrath is kindled against you and against your two friends, because you have not spoken of Me what is right as My servant Job has. |
| 8[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 8"Now therefore, take for yourselves seven bulls and seven rams, and go to My servant Job, and offer up a burnt offering for yourselves, and My servant Job will pray for you. For I will accept him so that I may not do with you according to your folly, because you have not spoken of Me what is right, as My servant Job has." |
| 9[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 9So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went and did as the LORD told them; and the LORD accepted Job. |
| 10[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 10The LORD restored the fortunes of Job when he prayed for his friends, and the LORD increased all that Job had twofold. |
| 11[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 11Then all his brothers and all his sisters and all who had known him before came to him, and they ate bread with him in his house; and they consoled him and comforted him for all the adversities that the LORD had brought on him. And each one gave him one piece of money, and each a ring of gold. |
| 12[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 12The LORD blessed the latter days of Job more than his beginning; and he had 14,000 sheep and 6,000 camels and 1,000 yoke of oxen and 1,000 female donkeys. |
| 13[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 13He had seven sons and three daughters. |
| 14[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 14He named the first Jemimah, and the second Keziah, and the third Keren-happuch. |
| 15[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 15In all the land no women were found so fair as Job's daughters; and their father gave them inheritance among their brothers. |
| 16[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 16After this, Job lived 140 years, and saw his sons and his grandsons, four generations. |
| 17[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 17And Job died, an old man and full of days. |
