Job 2:3-9

3And Jehovah said to Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth 1God and abstaineth from evil? and still he remaineth firm in his integrity, though thou movedst me against him, to swallow him up without cause.

4And Satan answered Jehovah and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that a man hath will he give for his life;

5but put forth thy hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, [and see] if he will not curse thee to thy face!

6And Jehovah said to Satan, Behold, he is in thy hand; only spare his life.

7And Satan went forth from the presence of Jehovah; and he smote Job with a grievous botch from the sole of his foot unto his crown.

8And he took a potsherd to scrape himself with; and he sat among the ashes.

9And his wife said to him, Dost thou still remain firm in thine integrity? curse 2God and die.
