OEB JOB Chapter 42

JOB 42 ©

2I acknowledge that Thou hast prevailed;

There is nothing too hard for Thee.

3bTherefore spake I without understanding,

3cOf wonders beyond my knowledge.

5I had heard of Thee but by hearsay,

But now mine eye hath seen Thee;

6And therefore I spurn (my words)

And repent in dust and in ashes.

The Epilogue

The Friends Rebuked

7So after Jehovah has spoken these words to Job, He said to Eliphaz the Temanite, "My anger is hot against thee and thy two friends; because, unlike my servant Job, ye have not spoken the 8truth about me. But now, go to my servant Job with seven bullocks and seven rams, and offer them as a burnt-offering for yourselves, and my servant Job shall pray for you; for, our of regard for him, I will not put you to confusion for your failure to speak the truth about me, as my servant Job has 9done." So Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite went and did as Jehovah told them, and Jehovah had regard unto Job.

The Restoration of Job

10So when Job prayed for his friends, Jehovah changed his fortunes, giving him double of all he 11had before. Then his brothers and sister and old friends came – every one of them – and dined with him at his home; and they condoled with him, and comforted him for all the misery that Jehovah had brought upon him. Besides, each of them made him a present of a piece of money and a gold ring. 12Thus in the end Jehovah made Job more blessed than he was at the first – with his fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, one thousand yoke of 13oxen, and one thousand she-asses. Besides, he had seven sons, and three daughters whom he named 14in the order of their birth Jemimah, Keziah, and 15Keren-happuch. In all the world were no women found so fair as the daughters of Job, and their father made them sharers in his inheritance with their brothers.

16After this Job lived a hundred and forty years. Thus he was spared to see not only his children, but his grandchildren – four generations.

17Then Job died – old and full of days.
