The Lord Restores Job's Fortunes

10 And the Lord (A)restored the fortunes of Job, when he had prayed for his friends. And the Lord gave Job (B)twice as much as he had before. 11 Then came to him all his (C)brothers and sisters and all who had (D)known him before, and ate bread with him in his house. And they (E)showed him sympathy and comforted him for all the evil[a] that the Lord had brought upon him. And each of them gave him (F)a piece of money[b] and (G)a ring of gold.

12 And the Lord blessed (H)the latter days of Job more than his beginning. And he had (I)14,000 sheep, 6,000 camels, 1,000 yoke of oxen, and 1,000 female donkeys.
