1. Then Job answered the Lord.
2. I know, Lord, that you are all-powerful;that you can do everything you want.
3. You ask how I dare question your wisdomwhen I am so very ignorant.I talked about things I did not understand,about marvels too great for me to know.
4. You told me to listen while you spokeand to try to answer your questions.
5. In the past I knew only what others had told me,but now I have seen you with my own eyes.
6. So I am ashamed of all I have saidand repent in dust and ashes.
