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)

Therefore I have uttered what I did not understand,
things too wonderful for me that I did not know.(B)
Job 42:1-3

Job Repents and is Restored
42 Job replied to the Lord:
2 “I know[a] that you can do anything
and nothing that you plan is impossible.
3 You asked,[b] ‘Who is this that darkens counsel without knowledge?’
Well now, I have talked about what I don’t understand—
awesome things beyond me that I don’t know.
