1. And Job answereth Jehovah and saith: --
2. Thou hast known that [for] all things Thou art able, And not withheld from Thee is [any] device:
3. `Who [is] this, hiding counsel without knowledge?' Therefore, I have declared, and understand not, Too wonderful for me, and I know not.
4. `Hear, I pray thee, and I--I do speak, I ask thee, and cause thou me to know.'
5. By the hearing of the ear I heard Thee, And now mine eye hath seen Thee.
6. Therefore do I loathe [it], And I have repented on dust and ashes.
