Job 42:6-8
Lexham English Bible
6 Therefore I despise myself
and repent in dust and ashes.”
7 And then[a] after Yahweh spoke these words to Job, Yahweh said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “My wrath has been kindled[b] against you[c] and against the two of your friends, for you[d] have not spoken to me what is right as my servant Job has. 8 So then,[e] take for yourselves seven bulls and seven rams, and go to my servant Job and offer a burnt offering for yourselves. And my servant Job will pray for you,[f] for I will certainly accept his prayer,[g] so that it will not be done with you[h] according to your folly, for you[i] have not spoken to me what is right as my servant Job has.”
