Job, a devout and wealthy man, suffers immense losses and afflictions. His friends Eliphaz, Bildad, and Zophar, suggest that his misfortunes are due to hidden sins or lack of faith in God. They insist that Job should repent and seek God's mercy. Job, however, firmly maintains his innocence and expresses frustration at his friends' false accusations. Elihu, a young man, joins the conversation, accusing Job of questioning God's justice. He says that God's actions are beyond human comprehension and that Job should humble himself and submit to God's will. Elihu also describes a storm and the power of God's voice in thunder, foreshadowing a dramatic event. Job still puts his trust in God, despite his suffering, believing that God will judge him fairly. Throughout the episode, the characters wrestle with the question of why bad things happen to good people and how to respond to suffering with faith and trust in God.
