Job 8:4–8

4 Since your children sinned against him,

he gave them over to their rebellion.

5 But if you earnestly seekp God

and ask the Almighty for mercy,q

6 if you are pure and upright,

then he will move even now on your behalf

and restore the home where your righteousness dwells.r

7 Then, even if your beginnings were modest,

your final days will be full of prosperity.s

8 For ask the previous generation,

and pay attention to what their ancestors discovered,t
