Job 42:1–6, “Then Job answered the LORD, and said, I know that thou canst do every thing, and that no thought can be withholden from thee. Who is he that hideth counsel without knowledge? therefore have I uttered that I understood not; things too wonderful for me, which I knew not. Hear, I beseech thee, and I will speak: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me. I have heard of thee by the hearing of the ear: but now mine eye seeth thee. Wherefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes.”

Job suffered and longed to be free of his suffering, when he finally saw the Lord’s majesty and power he understood that God is always great. God is sovereign and acts according to His own Divine will. Job also understood that the Lord doesn’t ever hurt anyone because he saw the Lord’s goodness. He knew that he has spoken about things that he didn’t really understand and willingly submitted himself to God’s wisdom. He repented of everything that he had said.
