1 Then Job{H347} answered{H6030}{(H8799)} the LORD{H3068}, and said{H559}{(H8799)},

2 I know{H3045}{(H8804)} that thou canst do{H3201}{(H8799)} every thing, and that no thought{H4209} can be withholden{H1219}{(H8735)} from thee.

3 Who is he that hideth{H5956}{(H8688)} counsel{H6098} without knowledge{H1847}? therefore have I uttered{H5046}{(H8689)} that I understood{H995}{(H8799)} not; things too wonderful{H6381}{(H8737)} for me, which I knew{H3045}{(H8799)} not.

4 Hear{H8085}{(H8798)}, I beseech thee, and I will speak{H1696}{(H8762)}: I will demand{H7592}{(H8799)} of thee, and declare{H3045}{(H8685)} thou unto me.

5 I have heard{H8085}{(H8804)} of thee by the hearing{H8088} of the ear{H241}: but now mine eye{H5869} seeth{H7200}{(H8804)} thee.

6 Wherefore I abhor{H3988}{(H8799)} myself, and repent{H5162}{(H8738)} in dust{H6083} and ashes{H665}.

7 And it was so, that after{H310} the LORD{H3068} had spoken{H1696}{(H8765)} these words{H1697} unto Job{H347}, the LORD{H3068} said{H559}{(H8799)} to Eliphaz{H464} the Temanite{H8489}, My wrath{H639} is kindled{H2734}{(H8804)} against thee, and against thy two{H8147} friends{H7453}: for ye have not spoken{H1696}{(H8765)} of me the thing that is right{H3559}{(H8737)}, as my servant{H5650} Job{H347} hath.

8 Therefore take{H3947}{(H8798)} unto you now seven{H7651} bullocks{H6499} and seven{H7651} rams{H352}, and go{H3212}{(H8798)} to my servant{H5650} Job{H347}, and offer up{H5927}{(H8689)} for yourselves a burnt offering{H5930}; and my servant{H5650} Job{H347} shall pray{H6419}{(H8691)} for you: for him{H6440} will I accept{H5375}{(H8799)}: lest I deal{H6213}{(H8800)} with you after your folly{H5039}, in that ye have not spoken{H1696}{(H8765)} of me the thing which is right{H3559}{(H8737)}, 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}{(H8799)}, and did{H6213}{(H8799)} according as the LORD{H3068} commanded{H1696}{(H8765)} them: the LORD{H3068} also accepted{H5375}{(H8799)} Job{H6440}{H347}.

10 And the LORD{H3068} turned{H7725}{(H8804)} the captivity{H7622}{(H8675)}{H7622} of Job{H347}, when he prayed{H6419}{(H8692)} for his friends{H7453}: also the LORD{H3068} gave{H3254}{(H8686)} Job{H347} twice as much{H4932} as he had before.

11 Then came{H935}{(H8799)} there unto him all his brethren{H251}, and all his sisters{H269}, and all they that had been of his acquaintance{H3045}{(H8802)} before{H6440}, and did eat{H398}{(H8799)} bread{H3899} with him in his house{H1004}: and they bemoaned{H5110}{(H8799)} him, and comforted{H5162}{(H8762)} him over all the evil{H7451} that the LORD{H3068} had brought{H935}{(H8689)} upon him: every man{H376} also gave{H5414}{(H8799)} him a{H259} piece of money{H7192}, and every one{H376} an earring{H5141} of gold{H2091}.

12 So the LORD{H3068} blessed{H1288}{(H8765)} the latter end{H319} of Job{H347} more than his beginning{H7225}: for he had fourteen{H702}{H6240} 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}{(H8799)} 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}{(H8738)} so fair{H3303} as the daughters{H1323} of Job{H347}: and their father{H1} gave{H5414}{(H8799)} them inheritance{H5159} among{H8432} their brethren{H251}.

16 After{H310} this lived{H2421}{(H8799)} Job{H347} an hundred{H3967} and forty{H705} years{H8141}, and saw{H7200}{(H8799)} his sons{H1121}, and his sons{H1121}' sons{H1121}, even four{H702} generations{H1755}.

17 So Job{H347} died{H4191}{(H8799)}, being old{H2205} and full{H7649} of days{H3117}.
