Job 42:6 in context
- 4You said, ‘Listen, now, and I will speak;
I will question you, and you will answer me.’ - 5I had heard of you by the hearing of the ear,
but now my eye sees you. - 6Therefore I abhor myself,
and repent in dust and ashes.” - 7It was so, that after Yahweh had spoken these words to Job, Yahweh said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “My wrath is kindled against you, and against your two friends; for you have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job has.
- 8Now therefore, take to yourselves seven bulls and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer up for yourselves a burnt offering; and my servant Job shall pray for you, for I will accept him, that I not deal with you according to your folly. For you have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job has.”
