Then Job replied to the Lord :
2
“I know that you can do anything,
and no one can stop you.
3
You asked, ‘Who is this that questions my wisdom with such ignorance?’
It is I - and I was talking about things I knew nothing about,
things far too wonderful for me.
4
You said, ‘Listen and I will speak!
I have some questions for you,
and you must answer them.’
5
I had only heard about you before,
but now I have seen you with my own eyes.
6
I take back everything I said,
and I sit in dust and ashes to show my repentance.”
