Job 42:11-17 Good News Bible Anglicised (GNBDC)

11. All Job's brothers and sisters and former friends came to visit him and feasted with him in his house. They expressed their sympathy and comforted him for all the troubles the Lord had brought on him. Each of them gave him some money and a gold ring.

12. The Lord blessed the last part of Job's life even more than he had blessed the first. Job owned 14,000 sheep, 6,000 camels, 2,000 head of cattle, and 1,000 donkeys.

13. He was the father of seven sons and three daughters.

14. He called the eldest daughter Jemimah, the second Keziah, and the youngest Keren Happuch.

15. There were no other women in the whole world as beautiful as Job's daughters. Their father gave them a share of the inheritance along with their brothers.

16. Job lived 140 years after this, long enough to see his grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

17. And then he died at a very great age.
