5 I heard about you from others;now I have seen youwith my own eyes.
6 That's why I hate myselfand sit here in dust and ashesto show my sorrow.
7 The Lord said to Eliphaz:What my servant Job has said about me is true, but I am angry with you and your two friends for not telling the truth.
8 So I want you to go over to Job and offer seven bulls and seven goats on an altar as a sacrifice to please me. After this, Job will pray, and I will agree not to punish you for your foolishness.
9 Eliphaz, Bildad, and Zophar obeyed the Lord, and he answered Job's prayer.
10 After Job had prayed for his three friends, the Lord made Job twice as rich as he had been before.
11 Then Job gave a feast for his brothers and sisters and for his old friends. They expressed their sorrow for the suffering the Lord had brought on him, and they each gave Job some silver and a gold ring.
