English Standard Version
Job's Confession and Repentance
42 Then Job answered the Lord and said:
2 “I know that you can (A)do all things,
and that no purpose of yours can be thwarted.
3 (B)‘Who is this that hides counsel without knowledge?’
Therefore I have uttered what I did not understand,
things (C)too wonderful for me, which I did not know.
Job 42:1-3
International Standard Version
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.
