AB Job 42.6 has been interpreted in various ways by ancient translators and modern scholars. The traditional interpretation of a repentant Job, found in most Bible versions, has its own problems and difficulties. A re-examination of the words used in Job 42.6 leads to the conclusion that Job is both overwhelmed and comforted. A new rendering of Job 42.6 is proposed, with the alternative interpretations listed in a footnote.
