Job 42:8 in Context — Job 42
6 C’est pourquoi je me condamne et je me repens Sur la poussière et sur la cendre.
7 Après que l’Éternel eut adressé ces paroles à Job, il dit à Éliphaz de Théman: Ma colère est enflammée contre toi et contre tes deux amis, parce que vous n’avez pas parlé de moi avec droiture comme l’a fait mon serviteur Job.
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.
