1 And Job answered the LORD and said:
2 "I know that you can do everything, and no purpose of yours can be thwarted.
3 'Who is this who hides counsel without knowledge?' So I have spoken of what I did not understand, things too wonderful for me, which I did not know.
4 'Listen, please, and I will speak; I will ask you, and you will teach me.'
5 By the hearing of the ear I had heard of you, but now my own eye has seen you.
6 So I despise myself, and I repent in dust and ashes."
7 When the LORD had spoken these words to Job, the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite, "My anger burns against you and your two friends, because you have not spoken what is right about me, as my servant Job has.
8 Now then, take seven bulls and seven rams, go to my servant Job and offer a burnt offering for yourselves, and my servant Job will pray for you; for I will accept him and not deal with you as your folly deserves. For you have not spoken what is right about me, as my servant Job has."
9 Then Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went and did what the LORD had told them, and the LORD accepted Job.
10 And the LORD restored the fortunes of Job when he prayed for his friends, and the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.
11 Then all his brothers and sisters and all who had known him before came to him and ate bread with him in his house. They consoled him and comforted him over all the trouble the LORD had brought on him, and each of them gave him a piece of money and a ring of gold.
12 So the LORD blessed the end of Job's life more than its beginning. He came to have fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, a thousand pairs of oxen and a thousand she-donkeys.
13 And he had seven sons and three daughters.
14 The first he named Jemimah, the second Keziah, and the third Keren-happuch.
15 Nowhere in the land were there women as lovely as Job's daughters, and their father gave them an inheritance along with their brothers.
16 After this Job lived a hundred and forty years and saw his sons and his sons' sons to the fourth generation.
17 And Job died, old and satisfied with days.
