Then Îyôb answered YAHUAH (יהוה), and said,
I know that you can do everything, and that no thought can be withheld from you.
Who is he that hides counsel without knowledge? Therefore have I uttered that I understood not; things too wonderful for me, which I knew not.
Hear, I beseech you, and I will speak: I will demand of you, and declare you unto me.
I have heard of you by the hearing of the ear: but now mine eye sees you.
Wherefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes.
And it was so, that after YAHUAH (יהוה) had spoken these words unto Îyôb, YAHUAH (יהוה) said to Ĕlı̂yphaz the Têymânı̂y, My wrath is kindled against you, and against your two friends: for you have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Îyôb has.
Therefore take unto you now seven bullocks and seven rams, and go to my servant Îyôb, and offer up for yourselves a burnt offering; and my servant Îyôb shall pray for you: for him will I accept: lest I deal with you after your folly, in that you have not spoken of me the thing which is right, like my servant Îyôb.
So Ĕlı̂yphaz the Têymânı̂y and Bildad the Shûchı̂y and Tsôphar the Naămâthı̂y went, and did according as YAHUAH (יהוה) commanded them: YAHUAH (יהוה) also accepted Îyôb.
And YAHUAH (יהוה) turned the captivity of Îyôb, when he prayed for his friends: also YAHUAH (יהוה) gave Îyôb twice as much as he had before.
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 YAHUAH (יהוה) had brought upon him: every man also gave him a piece of money, and everyone an earring of gold.
So YAHUAH (יהוה) blessed the latter end of Îyôb 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.
He had also seven sons and three daughters.
And he called the name of the first, Yemı̂ymâh (יְמִימָה); and the name of the second, Qetsı̂yâh (קְצִיעָה); and the name of the third, Qeren happûk (קֶרֶן הַפּוּךְ).
And in all the land were no women found so fair as the daughters of Îyôb: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren.
After this lived Îyôb an hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, even four generations.
So Îyôb died, being old and full of days.
