So Job died, being old and full of days.

Brenton’s Septuagint (1851), English

And Job died, an old man and full of days: a and it is written that he will rise again with those whom the Lord raises up. b This man is described in the Syriac book as living in the land of Ausis, on the borders of Idumea and Arabia: and his name before was Jobab; c and having taken an Arabian wife, he begot a son whose name was Ennon. And he himself was the son of his father Zare, one of the sons of Esau, and of his mother Bosorrha, so that he was the fifth from Abraam. d And these were the kings who reigned in Edom, which country he also ruled over: first, Balac, the son of Beor, and the name of his city was Dennaba: but after Balac, Jobab, who is called Job: and after him Asom, who was governor out of the country of Thæman: and after him Adad, the son of Barad, who destroyed Madiam in the plain of Moab; and the name of his city was Gethaim. e And his friends who came to him were Eliphaz, of the children of Esau, king of the Thæmanites, Baldad sovereign of the Sauchæans, Sophar king of the Minæans.

Septuagint (Brenton’s Greek, 1851)

Καὶ ἐτελεύτησεν Ἰὼβ πρεσβύτερος, καὶ πλήρης ἡμερῶν· a γέγραπται δὲ, αὐτὸν πάλιν ἀναστήσεσθαι μεθʼ ὧν ὁ Κύριος ἀνίστησιν. b Οὗτος ἑρμηνεύεται ἐκ τῆς Συριακῆς βίβλου, ἐν μὲν γῇ κατοικῶν τῇ Αὐσίτιδι, ἐπὶ τοῖς ὁρίοις τῆς Ἰδουμαίας καὶ Ἀραβίας· προϋπῆρχε δὲ αὐτῷ ὄνομα Ἰωβάβ· c λαβὼν δὲ γυναῖκα Ἀράβισσαν, γεννᾷ υἱὸν, ᾧ ὄνομα Ἐννών· ἦν δὲ αὐτὸς πατρὸς μὲν Ζαρὲ ἐκ τῶν Ἡσαῦ υἱῶν υἱὸς, μητρὸς δὲ Βοσόῤῥας, ὥστε εἶναι αὐτὸν πέμπτον ἀπὸ Ἁβραάμ· d καὶ οὗτοι οἱ βασιλεῖς οἱ βασιλεύσαντες ἐν Ἐδὼμ, ἧς καὶ αὐτὸς ἦρξε χώρας· πρῶτος Βαλὰκ ὁ τοῦ Βεὼρ, καὶ ὄνομα τῇ πόλει αὐτοῦ Δενναβά· μετὰ δὲ Βαλὰκ, Ἰωβὰβ ὁ καλούμενος Ἰώβ· μετὰ δὲ τοῦτον, Ἀσὼμ ὁ ὑπάρχων ἡγεμὼν ἐκ τῆς Θαιμανίτιδος χώρας· μετὰ δὲ τοῦτον, Ἀδὰδ υἱὸς Βαρὰδ, ὁ ἐκκόψας Μαδιὰμ ἐν τῷ πεδίῳ Μωὰβ, καὶ ὄνομα τῇ πόλει αὐτοῦ Γεθαίμ· e οἱ δὲ ἐλθόντες πρὸς αὐτὸν φίλοι, Ἐλιφὰς τῶν Ἡσαῦ υἱῶν Θαιμανῶν βασιλεὺς, Βαλδὰδ ὁ Σαυχαίων τύραννος, Σωφὰρ ὁ Μιναίων βασιλεύς.
