Berean Standard Bible
Then Job answered
the LORD ,
and
said,
Then Job replied
to
the LORD :
I know that thou
canst
do every
thing,
and that no thought
can be withholden
from
thee
.
“
I know that You
can
do all
things
and that no plan
of
Yours
can be thwarted
.
Who is he
that
hideth
counsel without knowledge? therefore
have
I uttered
that
I understood
not ;
things too wonderful for me ,
which
I
knew
not
.
You
asked,
‘
Who is this
who
conceals
My
counsel without knowledge? ’
Surely
I spoke
of
things
I did
not understand,
things too wonderful for me to
know
.
Hear
, I
beseech
thee
, and I will speak :
I will demand
of
thee
, and declare
thou
unto
me.
You
said
, ‘Listen
now
, and I will speak .
I will question
you
, and you
shall
inform
Me. ’
I
have
heard of thee
by
the
hearing
of
the
ear:
but now mine
eye
seeth
thee
.
My
ears
had
heard of You,
but now my
eyes
have
seen
You
.
Wherefore
I abhor
myself
, and repent in dust and ashes.
Therefore
I retract
my
words
, and I
repent in dust and ashes. ”
And
it
was
so,
that
after the LORD had spoken these words unto
Job, the
LORD
said to Eliphaz the Temanite, My wrath is kindled against thee,
and against
thy
two friends :
for ye
have not spoken of
me the
thing
that
is
right
, as my servant Job hath
.
After the LORD had spoken these words to
Job, He
said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “
My wrath is kindled against you
and your
two friends .
For you
have not spoken about
Me accurately
, as My servant Job has
.
Therefore
take
unto
you
now 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 ,
in
that
ye
have not spoken of
me the
thing
which
is
right
, like
my servant Job.
So
now ,
take
seven bulls
and seven rams, go to My servant Job, and sacrifice
a burnt offering for
yourselves.
Then
My servant Job will
pray for you ,
for I will
accept his
prayer
and
not
deal with you according
to
your folly .
For
you
have not spoken accurately
about
Me, as
My servant Job has
. ”
So Eliphaz the Temanite and
Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went ,
and did according
as the LORD commanded
them :
the LORD also
accepted Job
.
So Eliphaz the Temanite ,
Bildad the Shuhite ,
and Zophar the Naamathite went and did as the LORD had
told
them ;
and
the LORD accepted Job’s
request
.
And
the
LORD
turned
the
captivity
of
Job ,
when
he
prayed for his friends :
also
the LORD gave
Job
twice
as
much
as
he
had
before
.
After
Job had
prayed for his friends ,
the LORD restored
his
prosperity
and
doubled
his
former
possessions
.
Then
came
there
unto
him
all his brethren,
and all
his
sisters ,
and all
they
that
had
been
of
his
acquaintance
before,
and did
eat
bread
with him in his house :
and
they bemoaned
him ,
and comforted him over all the evil
that the LORD had brought upon him :
every
man
also
gave him a piece of money,
and every
one
an
earring
of
gold.
All his brothers
and sisters and prior
acquaintances
came
and dined
with him in his house .
They consoled
him and comforted him over all the adversity
that the LORD had brought upon him .
And
each
one
gave him a piece of silver
and a
gold ring
.
So the LORD blessed the
latter end
of
Job
more than his beginning:
for
he had
fourteen
thousand
sheep, and
six
thousand
camels, and
a
thousand
yoke of oxen, and a
thousand
she
asses
.
So the LORD blessed Job’s
latter days
more than his first.
He owned
14,000
sheep, 6,000
camels, 1,000
yoke of oxen, and 1,000
female
donkeys
.
He had
also seven sons and three daughters.
And
he also had
seven sons and three daughters.
And
he called
the
name
of
the
first, Jemima;
and
the
name
of
the
second, Kezia;
and the
name
of
the
third ,
Kerenhappuch
.
He named
his
first daughter
Jemimah
, his
second Keziah
, and his
third Keren-happuch
.
And
in
all
the
land
were
no women found
so
fair
as the
daughters of
Job:
and their father gave
them inheritance among their brethren
.
No women as beautiful
as
Job’s
daughters could
be
found
in
all
the
land,
and their father granted
them an
inheritance among their brothers
.
After this lived
Job an
hundred
and
forty
years ,
and saw his sons,
and his
sons'
sons,
even
four
generations
.
After this ,
Job lived
140
years and saw his children
and their
children
to
the
fourth
generation
.
So Job died, being
old and full of days
.
And
so Job died, old and full of years
.
