| [1]Then Job answered 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇, and said: |
[No book] |
| [2]I know that Thou canst do every thing, and that no purpose can be withholden from Thee. |
[No book] |
| [3]Who is this that hideth counsel without knowledge? Therefore have I uttered that which I understood not, things too wonderful for me, which I knew not. |
[No book] |
| [4]Hear, I beseech Thee, and I will speak; I will demand of Thee, and declare Thou unto me. |
[No book] |
| [5]I had heard of Thee by the hearing of the ear; but now mine eye seeth Thee; |
[No book] |
| [6]Wherefore I abhor my words, and repent, seeing I am dust and ashes. |
[No book] |
| [7]And it was so, that after 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 had spoken these words unto Job, 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 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. |
[No book] |
| [8]No therefore, take unto you seven bullocks and seven rams, and go to My servant Job, and offer up fo yourselves a burnt-offering; and My servant Job shall pray for you; for him will I accept, that I do not unto you aught unseemly; for ye have not spoken of Me the thing that is right, as my servant Job hath.' |
[No book] |
| [9]So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went, and did according as 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 commanded them; and 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 accepted Job. |
[No book] |
| [10]And 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 changed the fortune of Job, when he prayed for his friends; and 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 gave Job twice as much as he had before. |

| [11]Then came there unto him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of acquaintance before, and did eat bread with him in his house; and they bemoaned him, and comforted him concerning all the evil that 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 had brought upon him; every man also gave him a piece of money, and every one a ring of gold. |
[No book] |
| [12]So 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning; and he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she-asses. |

| [13]He had also seven sons and three daughters. |
[No book] |
| [14]And he called the name of the first, Jemimah; and the name of the second, Keziah; and the name of the third, Keren-happuch. |
[No book] |
| [15]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 book] |
| [16]And after this Job lived a hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, even four generations. |
[No book] |
| [17]So Job died, being old and full of days. |
