Job 42:14
12 So the LORD blessed Job’s latter days more than his first. He owned 14,000 sheep, 6,000 camels, 1,000 yoke of oxen, and 1,000 female donkeys.
13 And he also had seven sons and three daughters.
He named his first daughter Jemimah, his second Keziah, and his third Keren-happuch.
15 No women as beautiful as Job’s daughters could be found in all the land, and their father granted them an inheritance among their brothers.
16 After this, Job lived 140 years and saw his children and their children to the fourth generation.
Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
