Job answers the LORD

¹Then Job answered the LORD: ²I know that you can do everything; \q no purpose of yours can be stopped. ³You asked, “Who is this who hides my plan without knowledge?” \q Truly I have spoken of what I did not understand, \q things too wonderful for me, which I did not know. ⁴You said, “Listen now, and I will speak; \q I will question you, and you will answer me.” ⁵I had heard of you by what my ears were told, \q but now my own eyes have seen you. ⁶So I take back what I said, \q and I repent in dust and ashes.

The LORD rebukes Job’s friends

⁷After the LORD had spoken these words to Job, the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “My anger burns against you and against your two friends, because you have not spoken of me what is right, as my servant Job has. ⁸So now take seven bulls and seven rams, go to my servant Job, and offer a burnt offering for yourselves. My servant Job will pray for you, and I will accept his prayer and not deal with you as your folly deserves. For you have not spoken of me what is right, as my servant Job has.” ⁹So Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went and did what the LORD had told them, and the LORD accepted Job’s prayer. ¹⁰When Job prayed for his friends, the LORD restored his fortunes, and the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before. ¹¹All his brothers and sisters and everyone who had known him before came and ate a meal with him in his house. They showed him sympathy and comforted him for all the trouble the LORD had brought on him, and each of them gave him a piece of money and a gold ring.

The LORD blesses the latter days of Job

¹²The LORD blessed the last part of Job’s life more than the first. He had 14,000 sheep, 6,000 camels, 1,000 yoke of oxen, and 1,000 female donkeys. ¹³He also had seven sons and three daughters. ¹⁴He named the first Jemimah, the second Keziah, and the third Keren-happuch. ¹⁵In all the land there were no women as beautiful as Job’s daughters, and their father gave them an inheritance along with their brothers.

¹⁶After this Job lived 140 years, and he saw his children and grandchildren to the fourth generation. ¹⁷And Job died, old and satisfied with his days.
