Job 42:10 in Context — Job 42

8 Prenez maintenant sept taureaux et sept béliers, allez auprès de mon serviteur Job, et offrez pour vous un holocauste. Job, mon serviteur, priera pour vous, et c’est par égard pour lui seul que je ne vous traiterai pas selon votre folie; car vous n’avez pas parlé de moi avec droiture, comme l’a fait mon serviteur Job.

9 Éliphaz de Théman, Bildad de Schuach, et Tsophar de Naama allèrent et firent comme l’Éternel leur avait dit: et l’Éternel eut égard à la prière de Job.

10 L’Éternel rétablit Job dans son premier état, quand Job eut prié pour ses amis; et l’Éternel lui accorda le double de tout ce qu’il avait possédé.

11 Les frères, les sœurs, et les anciens amis de Job vinrent tous le visiter, et ils mangèrent avec lui dans sa maison. Ils le plaignirent et le consolèrent de tous les malheurs que l’Éternel avait fait venir sur lui, et chacun lui donna un kesita et un anneau d’or.

12 Pendant ses dernières années, Job reçut de l’Éternel plus de bénédictions qu’il n’en avait reçu dans les premières. Il posséda quatorze mille brebis, six mille chameaux, mille paires de bœufs, et mille ânesses.
