JOB
...
42 And Job answered Yahweh saying, 2 “I know that you are capable of doing everything and your plan can’t be restrained. 3 You asked, ‘Who is this who is obscuring guidance whilst knowing nothing?’ Therefore I announced, ‘I can’t figure out things that are too incredible for me – things I don’t understand!’ 4 You said, ‘Listen now and I will speak. I will ask you and you will explain it to me.’ 5 By listening with my ear I had heard you, but now my eye has seen you. 6 Therefore I despise myself and grieve in dirt and ash.”
7 And so, after Yahweh had said these things to Job, he then says to Eliphaz the Temanite, “My anger burns against you and your two friends because you haven’t spoken the truth about me the way my servant Job has. 8 So now take seven bulls and seven rams and go to my servant Job and present a burnt offering for yourselves. Then my servant Job will intercede for you because I will strengthen him to face me so as not to deal with you according to your disgrace, because you haven’t spoken the truth about me the way my servant Job has.”
9 So Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite went and did as Yahweh had told them, and Yahweh strengthened Job to face him. 10 So Yahweh reversed Job’s captivity through his intercession for his friends, and he also gave him twice as much as before. 11 Then all his brothers and sisters came to him, along with all those who knew him personally, and they had a meal with him in his house. They were compassionate to him and lamented with him concerning all the misery that Yahweh had brought upon him, and each one gave him a piece of silver and a gold ring. 12 What's more Yahweh blessed the latter part of Job’s life more than the beginning, and he acquired 14,000 sheep, 6,000 camels, 1,000 yoke of oxen, and 1,000 female donkeys. 13 He also had seven sons as well as three daughters – 14 the first he called Jemimah, the second was named Keziah, and the third was named Keren-Happuch. 15 Nowhere in the whole land were there found women as beautiful as Job’s daughters, and their father gave them an inheritance along with their brothers.
16 After this Job lived for 140 years and saw his children and their children through four generations. 17 Then Job died, elderly and full of days.
