1Then Job replied to the LORD: 1וַיַּ֖עַן אִיּ֥וֹב אֶת־ יְהוָ֗ה וַיֹּאמַֽר׃
2“I know that You can do all things and that no plan of Yours can be thwarted. 2[ידעת] (יָ֭דַעְתִּי) כִּי־ כֹ֣ל תּוּכָ֑ל וְלֹא־ יִבָּצֵ֖ר מִמְּךָ֣ מְזִמָּֽה׃
3You asked, ‘Who is this who conceals My counsel without knowledge?’ Surely I spoke of things I did not understand, things too wonderful for me to know. 3מִ֤י זֶ֨ה ׀ מַעְלִ֥ים עֵצָ֗ה בְּֽלִ֫י דָ֥עַת לָכֵ֣ן הִ֭גַּדְתִּי וְלֹ֣א אָבִ֑ין נִפְלָא֥וֹת מִ֝מֶּ֗נִּי וְלֹ֣א אֵדָֽע׃
4You said, ‘Listen now, and I will speak. I will question you, and you shall answer Me.’ 4שְֽׁמַֽע־ נָ֭א וְאָנֹכִ֣י אֲדַבֵּ֑ר אֶ֝שְׁאָלְךָ֗ וְהוֹדִיעֵֽנִי׃
5My ears had heard of You, but now my eyes have seen You. 5לְשֵֽׁמַע־ אֹ֥זֶן שְׁמַעְתִּ֑יךָ וְ֝עַתָּ֗ה עֵינִ֥י רָאָֽתְךָ׃
6Therefore I retract [my words], and I repent in dust and ashes.” 6עַל־ כֵּ֭ן אֶמְאַ֣ס וְנִחַ֑מְתִּי עַל־ עָפָ֥ר וָאֵֽפֶר׃ פ
7After the LORD had spoken these words to Job, He said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “My wrath is kindled against you and your two friends. For you have not spoken about Me accurately, as My servant Job has. 7וַיְהִ֗י אַחַ֨ר דִּבֶּ֧ר יְהוָ֛ה אֶת־ הַדְּבָרִ֥ים הָאֵ֖לֶּה אֶל־ אִיּ֑וֹב וַיֹּ֨אמֶר יְהוָ֜ה אֶל־ אֱלִיפַ֣ז הַתֵּֽימָנִ֗י חָרָ֨ה אַפִּ֤י בְךָ֙ וּבִשְׁנֵ֣י רֵעֶ֔יךָ כִּ֠י לֹ֣א דִבַּרְתֶּ֥ם אֵלַ֛י נְכוֹנָ֖ה כְּעַבְדִּ֥י אִיּֽוֹב׃
8So now, take seven bulls and seven rams, go to My servant Job, and sacrifice a burnt offering for yourselves. Then My servant Job will pray for you, for I will accept his prayer and not deal with you [according to your] folly. For you have not spoken accurately about Me, as My servant Job has.” 8וְעַתָּ֡ה קְחֽוּ־ לָכֶ֣ם שִׁבְעָֽה־ פָרִים֩ וְשִׁבְעָ֨ה אֵילִ֜ים וּלְכ֣וּ ׀ אֶל־ עַבְדִּ֣י אִיּ֗וֹב וְהַעֲלִיתֶ֤ם עוֹלָה֙ בַּֽעַדְכֶ֔ם וְאִיּ֣וֹב עַבְדִּ֔י יִתְפַּלֵּ֖ל עֲלֵיכֶ֑ם כִּ֧י אִם־ פָּנָ֣יו אֶשָּׂ֗א לְבִלְתִּ֞י עֲשׂ֤וֹת עִמָּכֶם֙ נְבָלָ֔ה כִּ֠י לֹ֣א דִבַּרְתֶּ֥ם אֵלַ֛י נְכוֹנָ֖ה כְּעַבְדִּ֥י אִיּֽוֹב׃
9So Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite went and did as the LORD had told them; and the LORD accepted Job’s request. 9וַיֵּלְכוּ֩ אֱלִיפַ֨ז הַתֵּֽימָנִ֜י וּבִלְדַּ֣ד הַשּׁוּחִ֗י צֹפַר֙ הַנַּ֣עֲמָתִ֔י וַֽיַּעֲשׂ֔וּ כַּאֲשֶׁ֛ר דִּבֶּ֥ר אֲלֵיהֶ֖ם יְהוָ֑ה וַיִּשָּׂ֥א יְהוָ֖ה אֶת־ פְּנֵ֥י אִיּֽוֹב׃
10After Job had prayed for his friends, the LORD restored his prosperity and doubled his former possessions. 10וַֽיהוָ֗ה שָׁ֚ב אֶת־ [שבית] (שְׁב֣וּת) אִיּ֔וֹב בְּהִֽתְפַּֽלְל֖וֹ בְּעַ֣ד רֵעֵ֑הוּ וַ֧יֹּסֶף יְהוָ֛ה אֶת־ כָּל־ אֲשֶׁ֥ר לְאִיּ֖וֹב לְמִשְׁנֶֽה׃
11All his brothers and sisters and prior acquaintances came and dined with him in his house. They consoled him and comforted him over all the adversity that the LORD had brought upon him. And each one gave him a piece of silver and a gold ring. 11וַיָּבֹ֣אוּ אֵ֠לָיו כָּל־ אֶחָ֨יו וְכָל־ [אחיתיו] (אַחְיוֹתָ֜יו) וְכָל־ יֹדְעָ֣יו לְפָנִ֗ים וַיֹּאכְל֨וּ עִמּ֣וֹ לֶחֶם֮ בְּבֵיתוֹ֒ וַיָּנֻ֤דוּ לוֹ֙ וַיְנַחֲמ֣וּ אֹת֔וֹ עַ֚ל כָּל־ הָ֣רָעָ֔ה אֲשֶׁר־ הֵבִ֥יא יְהוָ֖ה עָלָ֑יו וַיִּתְּנוּ־ ל֗וֹ אִ֚ישׁ קְשִׂיטָ֣ה אֶחָ֔ת וְאִ֕ישׁ נֶ֥זֶם זָהָ֖ב אֶחָֽד׃ ס
12So the LORD blessed Job's latter [days] more than his first. He owned 14,000 sheep, 6,000 camels, 1,000 yoke of oxen, and 1,000 female donkeys. 12וַֽיהוָ֗ה בֵּרַ֛ךְ אֶת־ אַחֲרִ֥ית אִיּ֖וֹב מֵרֵאשִׁת֑וֹ וַֽיְהִי־ ל֡וֹ אַרְבָּעָה֩ עָשָׂ֨ר אֶ֜לֶף צֹ֗אן וְשֵׁ֤שֶׁת אֲלָפִים֙ גְּמַלִּ֔ים וְאֶֽלֶף־ צֶ֥מֶד בָּקָ֖ר וְאֶ֥לֶף אֲתוֹנֽוֹת׃
13And he also had seven sons and three daughters. 13וַֽיְהִי־ ל֛וֹ שִׁבְעָ֥נָה בָנִ֖ים וְשָׁל֥וֹשׁ בָּנֽוֹת׃
14He named his first daughter Jemimah, his second Keziah, and his third Keren-happuch. 14וַיִּקְרָ֤א שֵׁם־ הָֽאַחַת֙ יְמִימָ֔ה וְשֵׁ֥ם הַשֵּׁנִ֖ית קְצִיעָ֑ה וְשֵׁ֥ם הַשְּׁלִישִׁ֖ית קֶ֥רֶן הַפּֽוּךְ׃
15No women as beautiful as Job’s daughters could be found in all the land, and their father granted them an inheritance among their brothers. 15וְלֹ֨א נִמְצָ֜א נָשִׁ֥ים יָפ֛וֹת כִּבְנ֥וֹת אִיּ֖וֹב בְּכָל־ הָאָ֑רֶץ וַיִּתֵּ֨ן לָהֶ֧ם אֲבִיהֶ֛ם נַחֲלָ֖ה בְּת֥וֹךְ אֲחֵיהֶֽם׃ ס
16After this, Job lived 140 years and saw his children and their children to the fourth generation. 16וַיְחִ֤י אִיּוֹב֙ אַֽחֲרֵי־ זֹ֔את מֵאָ֥ה וְאַרְבָּעִ֖ים שָׁנָ֑ה [וירא] (וַיִּרְאֶ֗ה) אֶת־ בָּנָיו֙ וְאֶת־ בְּנֵ֣י בָנָ֔יו אַרְבָּעָ֖ה דֹּרֽוֹת׃
17And so Job died, old and full of years. 17וַיָּ֣מָת אִיּ֔וֹב זָקֵ֖ן וּשְׂבַ֥ע יָמִֽים׃
