- 1. Then Iob answered the Lord, and sayd,
- 2. I knowe that thou canst doe all things, and that there is no thought hidde from thee.
- 3. Who is hee that hideth counsell without knowledge? therefore haue I spoken that I vnderstood not, euen things too wonderfull for me, and which I knew not.
- 4. Heare, I beseech thee, and I will speake: I will demaunde of thee, & declare thou vnto me.
- 5. I haue heard of thee by the hearing of the eare, but now mine eye seeth thee.
- 6. Therefore I abhorre my selfe, and repent in dust and ashes.
- 7. Now after that the Lord had spoken these wordes vnto Iob, ye Lord also said vnto Eliphaz ye Temanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends: for yee haue not spoken of me the thing that is right, like my seruant Iob.
- 8. Therefore take vnto you nowe seuen bullockes, and seuen rammes, and go to my seruant Iob, and offer vp for your selues a burnt offring, and my seruant Iob shall pray for you: for I wil accept him, least I should put you to shame, because ye haue not spoken of me the thing, which is right, like my seruant Iob.
- 9. So Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite went, and did according as the Lorde had saide vnto them, and the Lord accepted Iob.
- 10. Then the Lord turned the captiuitie of Iob, when he prayed for his friends: also the Lord gaue Iob twise so much as he had before.
- 11. Then came vnto him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had bene of his acquaintance before, and did eate bread with him in his house, & had compassion of him, & comforted him for al the euil, that the Lord had brought vpon him, and euery man gaue him a piece of money, and euery one an earing of golde.
- 12. So the Lorde blessed the last dayes of Iob more then the first: for he had foureteene thousand sheepe, and sixe thousand camels, & a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand shee asses.
- 13. He had also seue sonnes, & three daughters.
- 14. And he called the name of one Iemimah, and the name of the seconde Keziah, and the name of the third Keren-happuch.
- 15. In all the lande were no women found so faire as the daughters of Iob, & their father gaue them inheritaunce among their brethren.
- 16. And after this liued Iob an hundreth and fourtie yeres, and sawe his sonnes, and his sonnes sonnes, euen foure generations.
- 17. So Iob dyed, being old, and full of dayes.
