约伯为他的朋友祈祷。耶和华就使约伯从苦境（原文作掳掠）转回，并且耶和华赐给他的，比他从前所有的加倍。
And the LORD turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.
约伯的弟兄，姊妹，和以先所认识的人都来见他，在他家里一同吃饭。又论到耶和华所降与他的一切灾祸，都为他悲伤安慰他。每人也送他一块银子和一个金环。
Then came there unto him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, and did eat bread with him in his house: and they bemoaned him, and comforted him over all the evil that the LORD had brought upon him: every man also gave him a piece of money, and every one an earring of gold.
他也有七个儿子，三个女儿。
He had also seven sons and three daughters.
他给长女起名叫耶米玛，次女叫基洗亚，三女叫基连哈朴。
And he called the name of the first, Jemima; and the name of the second, Kezia; and the name of the third, Kerenhappuch.
我的心渴想神，就是永生神。我几时得朝见神呢。
My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God: when shall I come and appear before God?
我昼夜以眼泪当饮食。人不住的对我说，你的神在那里呢。
My tears have been my meat day and night, while they continually say unto me, Where is thy God?
我从前与众人同往，用欢呼称赞的声音，领他们到神的殿里，大家守节。我追想这些事，我的心极其悲伤。
When I remember these things, I pour out my soul in me: for I had gone with the multitude, I went with them to the house of God, with the voice of joy and praise, with a multitude that kept holyday.
你的瀑布发声，深渊就与深渊响应。你的波浪洪涛漫过我身。
Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy waterspouts: all thy waves and thy billows are gone over me.
白昼耶和华必向我施慈爱。黑夜我要歌颂祷告赐我生命的神。
Yet the LORD will command his lovingkindness in the day time, and in the night his song shall be with me, and my prayer unto the God of my life.
我要对神我的磐石说，你为何忘记我呢。我为何因仇敌的欺压时常哀痛呢。
I will say unto God my rock, Why hast thou forgotten me? why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?
