Job 42:2-6

2“I know that You can do all things, And that no thought or purpose of Yours can be restrained.

3[You said to me] ‘Who is this that darkens and obscures counsel [by words] without knowledge?’ Therefore [I now see] I have [rashly] uttered that which I did not understand, Things too wonderful for me, which I did not know.

4‘Hear, please, and I will speak; I will ask You, and You instruct [and answer] me.’

5I had heard of You [only] by the hearing of the ear, But now my [spiritual] eye sees You.

6Therefore I retract [my words and hate myself] And I repent in dust and ashes.”
