I had heard rumors about You,
but now my eyes(B) have seen You.
Therefore I take back my words
and repent in dust and ashes.[a]

  1. Job 42:6 LXX reads I despise myself and melt; I consider myself dust and ashes

You said, ‘Listen and I will speak!
    I have some questions for you,
    and you must answer them.’
I had only heard about you before,
    but now I have seen you with my own eyes.
I take back everything I said,
    and I sit in dust and ashes to show my repentance.”
