Job 42:7-17
7After the Lord had finished speaking to Job, he said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “I am angry with you and your two friends, for you have not spoken the truth about me, as my servant Job has.
8Now take seven bulls and seven rams, go to my servant Job, and offer a burnt offering for yourselves. Then my servant Job will pray for you. I will surely accept his prayer and not deal with you as your folly deserves. For you have not spoken the truth about me, as my servant Job has.”
9Then 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 prayer.
10After Job had prayed for his friends, the Lord restored his fortunes and doubled his previous possessions.
11All his brothers, sisters, and former acquaintances came to him and dined with him in his house. They sympathized with him and comforted him concerning all the adversity the Lord had brought on him. Each one gave him a piece of silver and a gold earring.
12So the Lord blessed the last part of Job’s life more than the first. He owned fourteen thousand sheep and goats, six thousand camels, one thousand yoke of oxen, and one thousand female donkeys.
13He also had seven sons and three daughters.
14He named his first daughter Jemimah, his second Keziah, and his third Keren-happuch.
15No women as beautiful as Job’s daughters could be found in all the land, and their father granted them an inheritance with their brothers.
16Job lived 140 years after this and saw his children and their children to the fourth generation.
17Then Job died, old and full of days.
