Job 42:1-6
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

Job Is Humbled and Satisfied

42 Then Job answered the Lord:

2 “I know that you can do all things
    and that no purpose of yours can be thwarted.(A)
3 ‘Who is this that hides counsel without knowledge?’
Therefore I have uttered what I did not understand,
    things too wonderful for me that I did not know.(B)
4 ‘Hear, and I will speak;
    I will question you, and you declare to me.’(C)
5 I had heard of you by the hearing of the ear,
    but now my eye sees you;(D)
6 therefore I despise myself
    and repent in dust and ashes.”(E)

2 “I know that you can do all things;(A)
    no purpose of yours can be thwarted.(B)
3 You asked, ‘Who is this that obscures my plans without knowledge?’(C)

    I will question you,
    and you shall answer me.’(E)

Job 42:1-6
King James Version

42 Then Job answered the Lord, and said,

2 I know that thou canst do every thing, and that no thought can be withholden from thee.

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.

4 Hear, I beseech thee, and I will speak: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me.

5 I have heard of thee by the hearing of the ear: but now mine eye seeth thee.

6 Wherefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes.
