Job 42 — DBY
42Verse 1And Job answered Jehovah and said,Verse 2I know that thou canst do everything, and that thou canst be hindered in no thought of thine.Verse 3Who is he that obscureth counsel without knowledge? therefore have I uttered what I did not understand; things too wonderful for me, which I knew not.Verse 4Hear, I beseech thee, and I will speak: I will demand of thee, and inform me.Verse 5I had heard of thee by the hearing of the ear, but now mine eye seeth thee:Verse 6Wherefore I abhor [myself], and repent in dust and ashes.Verse 7And it came to pass after Jehovah had spoken these words to Job, that Jehovah said to Eliphaz the Temanite, Mine anger is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends; for ye have not spoken rightly of me, like my servant Job.Verse 8And now, take for yourselves seven bullocks and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer up for yourselves a burnt-offering; and my servant Job shall pray for you, for him will I accept: lest I deal with you [after your] folly, for ye have not spoken of me rightly, like my servant Job.Verse 9Then Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite, went and did according as Jehovah had said unto them; and Jehovah accepted Job.Verse 10And Jehovah turned the captivity of Job, when he had prayed for his friends; and Jehovah gave Job twice as much as he had before.Verse 11And all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, came to him, and they ate bread with him in his house, and they condoled with him, and comforted him concerning all the evil that Jehovah had brought upon him; and every one gave him a piece of money, and every one a golden ring.Verse 12And Jehovah blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning; and he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she-asses.Verse 13And he had seven sons and three daughters.Verse 14And he called the name of the first, Jemimah; and the name of the second, Keziah; and the name of the third, Keren-happuch.Verse 15And in all the land were no women found [so] fair as the daughters of Job; and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren.Verse 16And Job lived after this a hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, four generations.Verse 17And Job died, old and full of days.
