God Restores Job’s Fortunes

¹⁰ The Lord restored the fortunes of Job when he prayed for his friends, and the Lord gave Job twice as much as he had before.^{(A) 11} Then all his brothers and sisters and all who had known him before came to him, and they ate bread with him in his house; and they consoled him and comforted him over all the [distressing] adversities that the Lord had brought on him. And each one gave him a piece of money, and each a ring of gold. ¹² And the Lord blessed the latter days of Job more than his beginning; for he had 14,000 sheep, 6,000 camels, 1,000 yoke of oxen, and 1,000 female donkeys.^(B)
