1
Again there was a day [3117] when the sons [1121] of God [0430] came [0935] to present [3320] themselves before the LORD, [3068] and Satan [7854] came [0935] also among [8432] them to present [3320] himself before the LORD. [3068]
2
And the LORD [3068] said [0559] unto Satan, [7854] From whence [0335] comest [0935] thou? And Satan [7854] answered [6030] the LORD, [3068] and said, [0559] From going to and fro [7751] in the earth, [0776] and from walking up and down [1980] in it.
3
And the LORD [3068] said [0559] unto Satan, [7854] Hast thou considered [7760] [3820] my servant [5650] Job, [0347] that [there is] none like him in the earth, [0776] a perfect [8535] and an upright [3477] man, [0376] one that feareth [3373] God, [0430] and escheweth [5493] evil? [7451] and still he holdeth [2388] fast his integrity, [8538] although thou movedst [5496] me against him, to destroy [1104] him without cause. [2600]
4
And Satan [7854] answered [6030] the LORD, [3068] and said, [0559] Skin [5785] for skin, [5785] yea, all that a man [0376] hath will he give [5414] for his life. [5315]
5
But [0199] put forth [7971] thine hand [3027] now, and touch [5060] his bone [6106] and his flesh, [1320] and he will curse [1288] thee to thy face. [6440]
6
And the LORD [3068] said [0559] unto Satan, [7854] Behold, he [is] in thine hand; [3027] but save [8104] his life. [5315]
7
So went Satan [7854] forth [3318] from the presence [6440] of the LORD, [3068] and smote [5221] Job [0347] with sore [7451] boils [7822] from the sole [3709] of his foot [7272] unto his crown. [6936]
8
And he took [3947] him a potsherd [2789] to scrape [1623] himself withal; and he sat down [3427] among [8432] the ashes. [0665]
9
Then said [0559] his wife [0802] unto him, Dost thou still retain [2388] thine integrity? [8538] curse [1288] God, [0430] and die. [4191]
10
But he said [0559] unto her, Thou speakest [1696] as one [0259] of the foolish women [5036] speaketh. [1696] What? [1571] shall we receive [6901] good [2896] at the hand of God, [0430] and shall we not receive [6901] evil? [7451] In all this did not Job [0347] sin [2398] with his lips. [8193]
11
Now when Job's [0347] three [7969] friends [7453] heard [8085] of all this evil [7451] that was come [0935] upon him, they came [0935] every one [0376] from his own place; [4725] Eliphaz [0464] the Temanite, [8489] and Bildad [1085] the Shuhite, [7747] and Zophar [6691] the Naamathite: [5284] for they had made an appointment [3259] together [3162] to come [0935] to mourn [5110] with him and to comfort [5162] him.
12
And when they lifted up [5375] their eyes [5869] afar off, [7350] and knew [5234] him not, they lifted up [5375] their voice, [6963] and wept; [1058] and they rent [7167] every one [0376] his mantle, [4598] and sprinkled [2236] dust [6083] upon their heads [7218] toward heaven. [8064]
13
So they sat down [3427] with him upon the ground [0776] seven [7651] days [3117] and seven [7651] nights, [3915] and none spake [1696] a word [1697] unto him: for they saw [7200] that [his] grief [3511] was very [3966] great. [1431]
