In context

4You said, ‘Listen, now, and I will speak; I will question you, and you will answer me.’

5I had heard of you by the hearing of the ear, but now my eye sees you.

6Therefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes.”

7It was so, that after the LORD had spoken these words to Job, the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “My wrath is kindled against you, and against your two friends; for you have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job has.

8Now therefore, take to yourselves seven bulls 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 I will accept him, that I not deal with you according to your folly. For you have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job has.”
