Then Yahweh answered Job from the storm, and he said,

Then Job answered Yahweh and said,

And then after Yahweh spoke these words to Job, Yahweh said to Eliphaz the Temanite, "My wrath has been kindled against you and against the two of your friends, for you have not spoken to me what is right as my servant Job has.

So then, take for yourselves seven bulls and seven rams, and go to my servant Job and offer a burnt offering for yourselves. And my servant Job will pray for you, for I will certainly accept his prayer, so that it will not be done with you according to your folly, for you have not spoken to me what is right as my servant Job has."

Then Yahweh returned Job's fortune when he prayed to him on behalf of his friends. Thus Yahweh increased all that Job had twice as much as before.

And Job lived after this one hundred and forty years, and he saw his sons and his grandsons for four generations.

Then Job died old and full of days.

And if even the three of these men were in the midst of it—Noah, Daniel, and Job—they, through their righteousness, would save only themselves!" declares the Lord Yahweh.

and if Noah, Daniel, and Job were in the midst of her, as surely as I live," declares the Lord Yahweh, "surely not a son, surely not a daughter will they save by their righteousness; they would save themselves."

Behold, we consider blessed those who have endured. You have heard about the patient endurance of Job, and you saw the outcome from the Lord, that the Lord is compassionate and merciful.
