29 “Behold, God does all these things,
twice, three times, with a man,
30 to bring back his soul from the pit,
that he may be lighted with the glight of life.
9 “Because of the multitude of oppressions people cry out;
they call for help because of the arm of the mighty.1
14 “Hear this, O Job;
stop and consider the wondrous works of God.
Job’s Confession and Repentance
1 Then Job answered the Lord and said:
2 “I know that nyou can do all things,
and that ono purpose of yours can be thwarted.
3 p‘Who is this that hides counsel without knowledge?’
Therefore I have uttered what I did not understand,
things qtoo wonderful for me, which I did not know.
6 therefore uI despise myself,
and repent in1 dust and ashes.”
12 And the Lord blessed ythe latter days of Job more than his beginning. And zhe had 14,000 sheep, 6,000 camels, 1,000 yoke of oxen, and 1,000 female donkeys.
