Hear, I beseech thee, and I will speak: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me.

Verse 4 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.

"So höre nun, laß mich reden; ich will dich fragen, lehre mich!"
Oye te ruego, y hablaré; Te preguntaré, y tú me enseñarás.
“Escucha, por favor, y yo hablaré; yo te preguntaré y tú me instruirás”.
Ecoute-moi, et je parlerai; Je t'interrogerai, et tu m'instruiras.
Deh! ascolta, ed io parlerò; Ed io ti farò delle domande, e tu insegnami.
Escuta-me, pois, e eu falarei; eu te perguntarei, e tu me ensinarás.
求你聽我,我要說話; 我問你,求你讓我知道。
