“In our prayers we talk to God, in our Bible study God talks to us, and we had better let God do most of the talking.”

Then came there unto him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, and did eat bread with him in his house: and they bemoaned him, and comforted him over all the evil that the LORD had brought upon him: every man also gave him a piece of money, and every one an earring of gold.
Job 42:11 — KJV
Brethren. Job’s kindred had forgotten, forsaken, and turned against him (chapter 19:13, 14, 19). Now that his fortunes have been reversed, they come to help him celebrate. They seemed unwilling to risk their sympathy until they had evidence that things were coming out all right. In this trait they reflect a common human failing.
Money. Hebrew qesitah, occurring only here and in Genesis 33:19 and Joshua 24:32. The qesitah was probably a measure of weight. There is an indication here of the antiquity of the book.
Earring. Hebrew nezem, used for various types of rings as well as earrings (see Genesis 24:47; 35:4; Judges 8:24, 25; Proverbs 11:22 [translated “jewel”]; 25:12; Isaiah 3:21; Hosea 2:13).
