Then Job[H347]answered[H6030] the LORD[H3068], and said[H559],
2
I know[H3045] that thou canst do[H3201] every thing, and that no thought[H4209] can be withholden[H1219] from thee.
3
Who is he that hideth[H5956]counsel[H6098] without knowledge?[H1847] therefore have I uttered[H5046] that I understood[H995] not; things too wonderful[H6381] for me, which I knew[H3045] not.
4Hear[H8085], I beseech thee, and I will speak[H1696]: I will demand[H7592] of thee, and declare[H3045] thou unto me.
5
I have heard[H8085] of thee by the hearing[H8088] of the ear[H241]: but now mine eye[H5869]seeth[H7200] thee.
6
Wherefore I abhor[H3988] myself, and repent[H5162] in dust[H6083] and ashes[H665].
7
And it was so, that after[H310] the LORD[H3068] had spoken[H1696] these words[H1697] unto Job[H347], the LORD[H3068]said[H559] to Eliphaz[H464] the Temanite[H8489], My wrath[H639] is kindled[H2734] against thee, and against thy two[H8147]friends[H7453]: for ye have not spoken[H1696] of me the thing that is right[H3559], as my servant[H5650]Job[H347] hath.
8
Therefore take[H3947] unto you now seven[H7651]bullocks[H6499] and seven[H7651]rams[H352], and go[H3212] to my servant[H5650]Job[H347], and offer up[H5927] for yourselves a burnt offering[H5930]; and my servant[H5650]Job[H347] shall pray[H6419] for you: for him[H6440] will I accept[H5375]: lest I deal[H6213] with you after your folly[H5039], in that ye have not spoken[H1696] of me the thing which is right[H3559], like my servant[H5650]Job[H347].
9
So Eliphaz[H464] the Temanite[H8489] and Bildad[H1085] the Shuhite[H7747] and Zophar[H6691] the Naamathite[H5284]went[H3212], and did[H6213] according as the LORD[H3068]commanded[H1696] them: the LORD[H3068] also accepted[H5375]Job[H6440].
10
And the LORD[H3068]turned[H7725] the captivity[H7622] of Job[H347], when he prayed[H6419] for his friends[H7453]: also the LORD[H3068]gave[H3254]Job[H347] twice as much[H4932] as he had before.
11
Then came[H935] there unto him all his brethren[H251], and all his sisters[H269], and all they that had been of his acquaintance[H3045]before[H6440], and did eat[H398]bread[H3899] with him in his house[H1004]: and they bemoaned[H5110] him, and comforted[H5162] him over all the evil[H7451] that the LORD[H3068] had brought[H935] upon him: every man[H376] also gave[H5414] him a[H259] piece of money[H7192], and every one[H376] an earring[H5141] of gold[H2091].
12
So the LORD[H3068]blessed[H1288] the latter end[H319] of Job[H347] more than his beginning[H7225]: for he had fourteen[H702]thousand[H505]sheep[H6629], and six[H8337]thousand[H505]camels[H1581], and a thousand[H505]yoke[H6776] of oxen[H1241], and a thousand[H505] she asses[H860].
13
He had also seven[H7658]sons[H1121] and three[H7969]daughters[H1323].
14
And he called[H7121] the name[H8034] of the first[H259], Jemima[H3224]; and the name[H8034] of the second[H8145], Kezia[H7103]; and the name[H8034] of the third[H7992], Kerenhappuch[H7163].
15
And in all the land[H776] were no women[H802]found[H4672] so fair[H3303] as the daughters[H1323] of Job[H347]: and their father[H1]gave[H5414] them inheritance[H5159]among[H8432] their brethren[H251].
16After[H310] this lived[H2421]Job[H347] an hundred[H3967] and forty[H705]years[H8141], and saw[H7200] his sons[H1121], and his sons[H1121]' sons[H1121], even four[H702]generations[H1755].
17
So Job[H347]died[H4191], being old[H2205] and full[H7649] of days[H3117].
