Job 42:1-6

Common English Bible

² I know you can do anything;
    no plan of yours can be opposed successfully.
³ You said,^[a] “Who is this darkening counsel without knowledge?”
    I have indeed spoken about things I didn’t understand,
    wonders beyond my comprehension.
⁴ You said,^[b] “Listen and I will speak;
    I will question you and you will inform me.”
⁵ My ears had heard about you,
    but now my eyes have seen you.
⁶ Therefore, I relent^[c] and find comfort
    on dust and ashes.
