Job 1:13-17

13And there was a day when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in the house of their brother, the firstborn.

14And there came a messenger to Job and said, The oxen were ploughing, and the asses feeding beside them;

15and [they of] Sheba fell [upon them] and took them, and the servants have they smitten with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped, alone, to tell thee.

16While he was yet speaking, there came another and said, The fire of 1God fell from heaven and burned up the sheep and the servants, and consumed them; and I only am escaped, alone, to tell thee.

17While he was yet speaking, there came another and said, The Chaldeans made three bands, and fell upon the camels and took them, and the servants have they smitten with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped, alone, to tell thee.
