Job 42:17

So Job died, being old and full of days.

KJV

καὶ ἐτελεύτησεν Ἰὼβ πρεσβύτερος καὶ πλήρης ἡμερῶν. [1] γέγραπται δὲ αὐτὸν πάλιν ἀναστήσεσθαι μεθ’ ὧν ὁ κύριος ἀνίστησιν. [2] Οὗτος ἑρμηνεύεται ἐκ τῆς Συριακῆς βίβλου, ἐν μὲν γῇ κατοικῶν τῇ Αὐσίτιδι ἐπὶ τοῖς ὁρίοις τῆς Ἰδουμαίας καὶ Ἀραβίας· προυπῆρχεν δὲ αὐτῷ ὄνομα Ἰωβάβ. [3] λαβὼν δὲ γυναῖκα Ἀράβισσαν γεννᾷ υἱὸν ᾧ ὄνομα Ἐννών· ἦν δὲ αὐτὸς πατρὸς μὲν Ζάρε, ἐκ τῶν Ἠσαὺ υἱῶν υἱός, μητρὸς δὲ Βοσόρρας, ὥστε εἶναι αὐτὸν πέμπτον ἀπὸ Ἀβραάμ. [4] καὶ οὗτοι οἱ βασιλεῖς οἱ βασιλεύσαντες ἐν Ἐδώμ, ἧς καὶ αὐτὸς ἦρξεν χώρας· πρῶτος Βαλὰκ ὁ τοῦ Βεώρ, καὶ ὄνομα τῇ πόλει αὐτοῦ Δεννάβα· μετὰ δὲ Βαλὰκ Ἰωβὰβ ὁ καλούμενος Ἰώβ· μετὰ δὲ τοῦτον Ἁσὸμ ὁ ὑπάρχων ἡγεμὼν ἐκ τῆς Θαιμανείτιδος χώρας· μετὰ δὲ τοῦτον Ἁδὰδ υἱὸς Βαρὰδ ὁ ἐκκόψας Μαδιὰμ ἐν τῷ πεδίῳ Μωάβ, καὶ ὄνομα τῇ πόλει αὐτοῦ Γεθθάιμ. [5] οἱ δὲ ἐλθόντες πρὸς αὐτὸν φίλοι Ἐλειφὰς τῶν Ἠσαὺ υἱῶν, Θαιμανῶν βασιλεύς, Βαλδὰδ ὁ Σαυχαίων τύραννος, Σωφὰρ ὁ Μειναίων βασιλεύς.
