1. Then Job answered Yahweh,
2. “I know that you can do all things, and that no purpose of yours can be restrained.
3. You asked, ‘Who is this who hides counsel without knowledge?’ therefore I have uttered that which I did not understand, things too wonderful for me, which I didn’t know.
4. You said, ‘Listen, now, and I will speak; I will question you, and you will answer me.’
5. I had heard of you by the hearing of the ear, but now my eye sees you.
6. Therefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes.”
7. It was so, that after Yahweh had spoken these words to Job, Yahweh said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “My wrath is kindled against you, and against your two friends; for you have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job has.
