1 Тада Јов одговори Господу и рече: 2 Знам да све можеш, и да се не може смести шта наумиш. 3 Ко је то што замрачује савет неразумно? Зато кажем да нисам разумевао; чудесно је то за ме, те не могу знати. 4 Слушај кад узговорим, и кад запитам, кажи ми. 5 Ушима слушах о Теби, а сада Те око моје види. 6 Зато поричем, и кајем се у праху и пепелу. 7 А кад Господ изговори оне речи Јову, рече Господ Елифасу Теманцу: Распалио се гнев мој на тебе и на два пријатеља твоја што не говористе о мени право као слуга мој Јов. 8 Зато сада узмите седам телаца и седам овнова, и идите к слузи мом Јову и принесите жртве паљенице за се, и слуга мој Јов нека се помоли за вас, јер ћу доиста погледати на њ да не учиним с вама по вашој лудости, јер не говористе о мени право као слуга мој Јов. 9 И тако отиде Елифас Теманац и Вилдад Сушанин и Софар Намаћанин, и учинише како им заповеди Господ. И погледа Господ на Јова. 10 И Господ врати што беше узето Јову пошто се помоли за пријатеље своје; и умножи Господ Јову двојином све што беше имао. 11 И дођоше к њему сва браћа његова и све сестре његове и сви пређашњи знанци његови, и једоше с њим у његовој кући и жалећи га тешише га за све зло што беше Господ пустио на њ, и дадоше му сваки по новац и по гривну златну. 12 И Господ благослови последак Јовов више него почетак, те имаше четрнаест хиљада оваца и шест хиљада камила и хиљаду јармова волова и хиљаду магарица. 13 И имаше седам синова и три кћери. 14 И првој наде име Јемима, а другој Кесија а трећој Керен-апуха. 15 И не нахођаше се у свој земљи тако лепих девојака као кћери Јовове, и отац им даде наследство међу браћом њиховом. 16 И после поживе Јов сто и четрдесет година, и виде синове и унуке до четвртог колена. 17 И умре Јов стар и сит живота.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

And again, "I have heard of Thee before, as far as hearing of the ear; but now mine eye hath seen Thee; wherefore I have made myself vile, and have melted away; and I accounted myself earth and ashes." This fortitude then, this moderation, of him that was before law and grace, let us …
