1Then Job answered Yahweh,
2“I know that you can do anything, and no one can stop your plans.
3You asked, ‘Who is this who hides my counsel without knowledge?’ So I have spoken of things I didn’t understand, things too wonderful for me, which I didn’t know.
4You said, ‘Listen now, and I will speak; I will ask you questions, and you will answer me.’
5I had only heard about you before, but now I have seen you with my own eyes.
6Therefore, I hate myself and repent in dust and ashes.”
7After Yahweh finished speaking these words to Job, Yahweh said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “My anger is burning against you and your two friends, because you have not spoken the truth about me, as my servant Job has.
8So now, take seven bulls and seven rams, go to my servant Job, and offer them as a burnt offering for yourselves. My servant Job will pray for you, and I will accept his prayer so that I do not punish you for your foolishness. For you have not spoken the truth about me, as my servant Job has.”
9So Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite went and did what Yahweh commanded them, and Yahweh accepted Job’s prayer.
10Yahweh restored Job’s prosperity when he prayed for his friends, and Yahweh gave Job twice as much as he had before.
11Then all his brothers and sisters and everyone who had known him before came to him and ate with him in his house. They comforted and consoled him for all the trouble Yahweh had brought on him. Each person also gave him a piece of money and a gold ring.
12So Yahweh blessed the latter part of Job’s life more than the beginning. He had fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, one thousand teams of oxen, and one thousand female donkeys.
13He also had seven sons and three daughters.
14He named the first daughter Jemimah, the second Keziah, and the third Keren Happuch.
15No women as beautiful as Job’s daughters were found anywhere in the land. Their father gave them an inheritance along with their brothers.
16After this, Job lived for one hundred forty years, and he saw his children and his grandchildren for four generations.
17So Job died, old and having lived a full life.
