Worth as a verb is obsolete. Where have you seen or heard It worths it or It worth it?
What you will find is It’s worth it, used to describe something that has a value equivalent to what is being asked for it either in terms of money or effort. In that use, worth is an adjective.
ANSWER 2

Only the last one is correct.
"Worth" is classified as an Adjective and used as one. (Although it also acts differently from all of the Adjectives.)
In your particular example, "worth" is used as an Adjective but acts as a Preposition. That's why it's normally followed by a Noun, a Pronoun or a Gerund.
Ex.
It's worth a try.
It's worth it.
It's worth trying.

If you're having trouble understanding this, then look at 'worth' as 'having value.' then: It's worth a try. is equivalent to (but NOT replaceable by) It has value to try OR There is value in trying
It's worth it. is equivalent to (but NOT replaceable by) It has value (roughly equivalent value).
It's worth trying. is equivalent to (but NOT replaceable by) It has value to try OR there is value in trying
