Verse 2 is found in chapter 42 of Job. Job finally responds by acknowledging that God can do all things and that none of his purposes can be thwarted. He confesses that he spoke about realities he did not understand and states that he has now heard and seen in a transformative way. His repentance can be understood as a correction of his claim to understand and judge divine government, not as a confession of the specific sins his friends attributed to him.
