Job 42:1-5 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

1. Then Job answered the Lord and said:

2. I know that you can do all things,and that no purpose of yours can be hindered.

3. “Who is this who obscures counsel with ignorance?”I have spoken but did not understand;things too marvelous for me, which I did not know.

4. “Listen, and I will speak;I will question you, and you tell me the answers.”

5. By hearsay I had heard of you,but now my eye has seen you.
