Job 42

Job confesses that God can do everything and that he spoke of things too wonderful for him. After seeing God more clearly, he abhors himself and repents in dust and ashes. God then rebukes Eliphaz, Bildad, and Zophar for not speaking of Him rightly as Job did, accepts Job’s prayer for them, and restores Job with renewed family, possessions, and long life.
