Job 42:7-12
The Lord Rebukes Job’s Friends
7After the Lord had spoken these words to Job, the Lord said to Eliphaz athe Temanite: “My anger burns against you and against your two friends, for you have not spoken of me what is right, as my servant Job has. 8Now therefore take bseven bulls and seven rams and go to my servant Job and coffer up a burnt offering for yourselves. And my servant Job shall dpray for you, for I will accept his prayer not to deal with you according to your folly. For you have not spoken of me what is right, as my servant Job has.” 9 eSo Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went and did what the Lord had told them, and the Lord accepted Job’s prayer.The Lord Restores Job’s Fortunes
10And the Lord frestored the fortunes of Job, when he had prayed for his friends. And the Lord gave Job gtwice as much as he had before. 11Then came to him all his hbrothers and sisters and all who had iknown him before, and ate bread with him in his house. And they jshowed him sympathy and comforted him for all the evil ▼▼Or disaster
that the Lord had brought upon him. And each of them gave him la piece of money ▼▼Hebrew a qesitah; a unit of money of unknown value
and na ring of gold. 12And the Lord blessed othe latter days of Job more than his beginning. And he had p14,000 sheep, 6,000 camels, 1,000 yoke of oxen, and 1,000 female donkeys.
