Job 42:7-17 — Job's Restoration

Job.42.7-17

⁷After Yahweh had spoken these words to Job, Yahweh said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “My anger is kindled against you and against your two friends, because you have not spoken rightly of me, as my servant Job has.” ⁸Now take for yourselves seven bulls and seven rams, and go to my servant Job and offer up a burnt offering for yourselves. And my servant Job shall pray for you, for I will show favor to him, so that I may not deal with you according to your folly. For you have not spoken rightly of me, as my servant Job has." ⁹So Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite went and did as Yahweh had spoken to them, and Yahweh showed favor to Job. ¹⁰And Yahweh restored Job's fortunes when he prayed for his friends, and Yahweh gave Job twice as much as he had before. ¹¹Then all his brothers and all his sisters and all who had known him before came to him, and they ate a meal with him in his house. They sympathized with him and comforted him over all the calamity that Yahweh had brought upon him, and each one gave him a piece of silver and a ring of gold. ¹²And Yahweh blessed Job's latter end more than his beginning. He had fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, one thousand yoke of oxen, and one thousand female donkeys. ¹³He also had seven sons and three daughters. ¹⁴He named the first Jemimah, the second Keziah, and the third Keren-happuch. ¹⁵Nowhere in all the land were women found so beautiful as Job's daughters, and their father gave them an inheritance among their brothers. ¹⁶After this, Job lived one hundred and forty years, and saw his children and their children to four generations. ¹⁷And Job died, old and full of days.
