Job 2:1-5

1On anotherH1961 dayH3117 the sonsH1121 of GodH430 cameH935 to present themselvesH3320 beforeH5921 the LORDH3068, and SatanH78541 alsoH1571 cameH935 with themH8432 to present himselfH3320 beforeH5921 Him.

2“WhereH335H2088 have you come fromH935?” saidH559 the LORDH3068 toH413 SatanH7854.

“From roamingH7751 through the earthH776,” he repliedH6030, “and walking back and forthH1980 in it.”

3Then the LORDH3068 saidH559 toH413 SatanH7854, “Have you consideredH7760H3820H413 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. He stillH5750 retainsH2388 his integrityH8538, even though you incited MeH5496 against him to ruin himH1104 without causeH2600.”

4“SkinH5785 forH1157 skinH5785!” SatanH7854 repliedH6030H559. “A manH376 will give upH5414 allH3605 he ownsH834 in exchange forH1157 his lifeH5315. 5ButH199 stretch outH7971H4994 Your handH3027 and strikeH5060 his fleshH1320 and bonesH6106H413, and he will surelyH518H3808 curse YouH1288 toH413 Your faceH6440.”
