Job 1:13-19

13And there wasH1961 a dayH3117 when his sonsH1121 and his daughtersH1323 wereH1961 eatingH398 and drinkingH8354 wineH3196 in the houseH1004 of their brotherH251, the firstbornH1060.

14And there cameH935 a messengerH4397 to JobH347 and saidH559, The oxenH1241 wereH1961 ploughing, and the asses feeding beside them;

15and [they of] ShebaH7614 fellH5307 [upon them] and tookH3947 them, and the servantsH5288 have they smitten with the edge of the swordH2719; and I onlyH7535 am escapedH4422, aloneH905, to tellH5046 thee.

16While he was yetH5750 speakingH1696, there cameH935 another and saidH559, The fireH784 of 1GodH430 fellH5307 from heavenH8064 and burnedH1197 up the sheepH6629 and the servantsH5288, and consumedH398 them; and I onlyH7535 am escapedH4422, aloneH905, to tellH5046 thee.

17While he was yetH5750 speakingH1696, there cameH935 another and saidH559, The ChaldeansH3778 madeH7760 threeH7969 bands, and fell upon the camelsH1581 and tookH3947 them, and the servantsH5288 have they smitten with the edge of the swordH2719; and I onlyH7535 am escapedH4422, aloneH905, to tellH5046 thee.

18While he was yet speakingH1696, there cameH935 another and saidH559, Thy sonsH1121 and thy daughtersH1323 were eatingH398 and drinkingH8354 wineH3196 in the houseH1004 of their brotherH251, the firstbornH1060;

19and behold, there cameH935 a greatH1419 windH7307 from over the wildernessH4057, and smote the fourH702 cornersH6438 of the houseH1004, and it fellH5307 upon the youngH5288 menH5288, and they diedH4191; and I onlyH7535 am escapedH4422, aloneH905, to tellH5046 thee.
