After this opened Job his mouth, and cursed his day.

That thou inquirest after mine iniquity, And searchest after my sin,

They that come after shall be astonished at his day, As they that went before were affrighted.

And after my skin, even this body , is destroyed, Then without my flesh shall I see God;

Suffer me, and I also will speak; And after that I have spoken, mock on.

For what careth he for his house after him, When the number of his months is cut off?

The clods of the valley shall be sweet unto him, And all men shall draw after him, As there were innumerable before him.

After my words they spake not again; And my speech distilled upon them.

They are driven forth from the midst of men ; They cry after them as after a thief;

If my step hath turned out of the way, And my heart walked after mine eyes, And if any spot hath cleaved to my hands:

After it a voice roareth; He thundereth with the voice of his majesty; And he restraineth not the lightnings when his voice is heard.

The range of the mountains is his pasture, And he searcheth after every green thing.

Canst thou bind the wild-ox with his band in the furrow? Or will he harrow the valleys after thee?

He maketh a path to shine after him; One would think the deep to be hoary.

And it was so, that, after Jehovah had spoken these words unto Job, Jehovah said to Eliphaz the Temanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends; for ye have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job hath.

Now therefore, take unto you seven bullocks and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer up for yourselves a burnt-offering; and my servant Job shall pray for you; for him will I accept, that I deal not with you after your folly; for ye have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job hath.

And after this Job lived a hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons'sons, even four generations.
