11 Then all his (A)brothers and all his sisters and all who had known him before came to him, and they ate bread with him in his house; and they (B)consoled him and comforted him for all the calamity that Yahweh had brought on him. And each one gave him one [a]qesitah, and each a ring of gold. 12 (C)And Yahweh blessed the latter days of Job more than his beginning; (D)and he had 14,000 sheep and 6,000 camels and 1,000 pairs of oxen and 1,000 female donkeys. 13 (E)He also had seven sons and three daughters.
