Job 1:6-12
One dayH3117 the sonsH1121 of GodH430 cameH935 to present themselvesH3320 beforeH5921 the LORDH3068, and SatanH78541 alsoH1571 cameH935 with themH8432.
7“WhereH370 have you come fromH935?” saidH559 the LORDH3068 toH413 SatanH7854.
“From roamingH7751 through the earthH776,” heH7854 repliedH6030, “and walking back and forthH1980 in it.”
8Then the LORDH3068 saidH559 toH413 SatanH7854, “Have you consideredH7760H3820H5921 My servantH5650 JobH347? ForH3588 there is no oneH369 on earthH776 like himH3644, a manH376 who is blamelessH8535 and uprightH3477, who fearsH3373 GodH430 and shunsH5493 evilH7451.”
9SatanH7854 answeredH6030 the LORDH3068H559, “Does JobH347 fearH3372 GodH430 for nothingH2600? 10Have You notH3808H859 placed a hedgeH7753 on every sideH5439 around himH1157 and his householdH1004 andH1157 allH3605 thatH834 he owns? You have blessedH1288 the workH4639 of his handsH3027, and his possessionsH4735 have increasedH6555 in the landH776. 11ButH199 stretch outH7971H4994 Your handH3027 and strikeH5060 allH3605 thatH834 he has, and he will surelyH518H3808 curse YouH1288 toH5921 Your faceH6440.”
12“Very wellH2009,” saidH559 the LORDH3068 toH413 SatanH7854. “EverythingH3605 he has is in your handsH3027, butH7535 you must notH408 layH7971 a handH3027 on the man himselfH413.”
Then SatanH7854H5973 went outH3318 from the presenceH6440 of the LORDH3068.
