 NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 1 Then Job answered the LORD and said, | 1 Then Job answered the LORD, and said, | 1 Then Job answered Jehovah, and said, | 1 Then Job answered the Lord, and said : | 1 And Job answereth Jehovah and saith: -- | 2 "I know that You can do all things, And that no purpose of Yours can be thwarted. | 2 I know that thou canst do every thing, and that no thought can be withholden from thee. | 2 I know that thou canst do all things, And that no purpose of thine can be restrained. | 2 I know that thou canst do all things, and no thought is hid from thee. | 2 Thou hast known that for all things Thou art able, And not withheld from Thee is any device: | 3 'Who is this that hides counsel without knowledge?' "Therefore I have declared that which I did not understand, Things too wonderful for me, which I did not know." | 3 Who is he that hideth counsel without knowledge? therefore have I uttered that I understood not; things too wonderful for me, which I knew not. | 3 Who is this that hideth counsel without knowledge? Therefore have I uttered that which I understood not, Things too wonderful for me, which I knew not. | 3 Who is this that hideth counsel without knowledge? Therefore I have spoken unwisely, and things that above measure exceeded my knowledge. | 3 Who is this, hiding counsel without knowledge?' Therefore, I have declared, and understand not, Too wonderful for me, and I know not. | 4 'Hear, now, and I will speak; I will ask You, and You instruct me.' | 4 Hear, I beseech thee, and I will speak: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me. | 4 Hear, I beseech thee, and I will speak; I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me. | 4 Hear, and I will speak : I will ask thee, and do thou tell me. | 4 'Hear, I pray thee, and I -- I do speak, I ask thee, and cause thou me to know.' | 5 "I have heard of You by the hearing of the ear; But now my eye sees You; | 5 I have heard of thee by the hearing of the ear: but now mine eye seeth thee. | 5 I had heard of thee by the hearing of the ear; But now mine eye seeth thee: | 5 With the hearing of the ear, I have heard thee, but now my eye seeth thee. | 5 By the hearing of the ear I heard Thee, And now mine eye hath seen Thee. | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 6 Therefore I retract, And I repent in dust and ashes." | 6 Wherefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes. | 6 Wherefore I abhor myself , And repent in dust and ashes. | 6 Therefore I reprehend myself, and do penance in dust and ashes. | 6 Therefore do I loathe it, And I have repented on dust and ashes. | God Displeased with Job’s Friends |
| 7 It came about after the LORD had spoken these words to Job, that the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite, "My wrath is kindled against you and against your two friends, because you have not spoken of Me what is right as My servant Job has. | 7 And it was so, that after the LORD had spoken these words unto Job, the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends: for ye have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job hath. | 7 And it was so, that, after Jehovah had spoken these words unto Job, Jehovah said to Eliphaz the Temanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends; for ye have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job hath. | 7 And after the Lord had spoken these words to Job, he said to Eliphaz the Themanite : My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends, because you have not spoken the thing that is right before my, as my servant Job hath. | 7 And it cometh to pass after Jehovah's speaking these words unto Job, that Jehovah saith unto Eliphaz the Temanite, 'Burned hath Mine anger against thee, and against thy two friends, because ye have not spoken concerning Me rightly, like My servant Job. | 8 "Now therefore, take for yourselves seven bulls and seven rams, and go to My servant Job, and offer up a burnt offering for yourselves, and My servant Job will pray for you. For I will accept him so that I may not do with you according to your folly, because you have not spoken of Me what is right, as My servant Job has." | 8 Therefore take unto you now seven bullocks and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer up for yourselves a burnt offering; and my servant Job shall pray for you: for him will I accept: lest I deal with you after your folly, in that ye have not spoken of me the thing which is right, like my servant Job. | 8 Now therefore, take unto you seven bullocks and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer up for yourselves a burnt-offering; and my servant Job shall pray for you; for him will I accept, that I deal not with you after your folly; for ye have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job hath. | 8 Take unto you therefore seven oxen, and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer for yourselves a holocaust : and my servant Job shall pray for you : his face I will accept, that folly be not imputed to you : for you have not spoken right things before me, as my servant Job hath. | 8 And now, take to you seven bullocks and seven rams, and go ye unto My servant Job, and ye have caused a burnt-offering to ascend for you; and Job My servant doth pray for you, for surely his face I accept, so as not to do with you folly, because ye have not spoken concerning Me rightly, like My servant Job. | 9 So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went and did as the LORD told them; and the LORD accepted Job. | 9 So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went, and did according as the LORD commanded them: the LORD also accepted Job. | 9 So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went, and did according as Jehovah commanded them: and Jehovah accepted Job. | 9 So Eliphaz the Themanite, and Baldad the Suhite, and Sophar the Naamathite went, and did as the Lord had spoken to them, and the Lord accepted the face of Job. | 9 And they go -- Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, Zophar the Naamathite -- and do as Jehovah hath spoken unto them; and Jehovah doth accept the face of Job. | God Restores Job’s Fortunes |
| 10 The LORD restored the fortunes of Job when he prayed for his friends, and the LORD increased all that Job had twofold. | 10 And the LORD turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before. | 10 And Jehovah turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: and Jehovah gave Job twice as much as he had before. | 10 The Lord also was turned at the penance of Job, when he prayed for his friends. And the Lord gave Job twice as much as he had before. | 10 And Jehovah hath turned to the captivity of Job in his praying for his friends, and Jehovah doth add to all that Job hath -- to double. | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 11 Then all his brothers and all his sisters and all who had known him before came to him, and they ate bread with him in his house; and they consoled him and comforted him for all the adversities that the LORD had brought on him. And each one gave him one piece of money, and each a ring of gold. | 11 Then came there unto him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, and did eat bread with him in his house: and they bemoaned him, and comforted him over all the evil that the LORD had brought upon him: every man also gave him a piece of money, and every one an earring of gold. | 11 Then came there unto him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, and did eat bread with him in his house: and they bemoaned him, and comforted him concerning all the evil that Jehovah had brought upon him: every man also gave him a piece of money, and every one a ring of gold. | 11 And all his brethren came to him, and all his sisters, and all that knew him before, and they ate bread with him in his house : and bemoaned him, and comforted him upon all the evil that God had brought upon him. And every man gave him one ewe, and one earring of fold. | 11 And come unto him do all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all his former acquaintances, and they eat bread with him in his house, and bemoan him, and comfort him concerning all the evil that Jehovah had brought upon him, and they gave to him each one kesitah, and each one ring of gold. | 12 The LORD blessed the latter days of Job more than his beginning; and he had 14,000 sheep and 6,000 camels and 1,000 yoke of oxen and 1,000 female donkeys. | 12 So the LORD blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses. | 12 So Jehovah blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: And he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she-asses. | 12 And the Lord blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning. And he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses. | 12 And Jehovah hath blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning, and he hath fourteen thousand of a flock, and six thousand camels, and a thousand pairs of oxen, and a thousand she-asses. | 13 He had seven sons and three daughters. | 13 He had also seven sons and three daughters. | 13 He had also seven sons and three daughters. | 13 And he had seven sons, and three daughters. | 13 And he hath seven sons and three daughters; | 14 He named the first Jemimah, and the second Keziah, and the third Keren-happuch. | 14 And he called the name of the first, Jemima; and the name of the second, Kezia; and the name of the third, Kerenhappuch. | 14 And he called the name of the first, Jemimah: and the name of the second, Keziah; and the name of the third, Keren-happuch. | 14 And he called the names of one Dies, and the name of the second Cassia, and the name of the third Cornustibil. | 14 and he calleth the name of the one Jemima, and the name of the second Kezia, and the name of the third Keren-Happuch. | 15 In all the land no women were found so fair as Job's daughters; and their father gave them inheritance among their brothers. | 15 And in all the land were no women found so fair as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren. | 15 And in all the land were no women found so fair as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren. | 15 And there were not found in all the earth women so beautiful as the daughters of Job : and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren. | 15 And there have not been found women fair as the daughters of Job in all the land, and their father doth give to them an inheritance in the midst of their brethren. | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 16 After this, Job lived 140 years, and saw his sons and his grandsons, four generations. | 16 After this lived Job an hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, even four generations. | 16 And after this Job lived a hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons'sons, even four generations. | 16 And Job lived after these things, a hundred and forty years, and he saw his children, and his children's children, unto the fourth generation, | 16 And Job liveth after this a hundred and forty years, and seeth his sons, and his sons' sons, four generations; | 17 And Job died, an old man and full of days. | 17 So Job died, being old and full of days. | 17 So Job died, being old and full of days. | 17 and he died an old man, and full of days. | 17 and Job dieth, aged and satisfied with days. |
