Job 2:3-10

3And Jehovah saidH559 to Satan, Hast thou considered my servantH5650 JobH347, that there is none like him on the earthH776, a perfectH8535 and an uprightH3477 manH376, oneH376 that feareth 1GodH430 and abstaineth from evilH7451? and stillH5750 he remaineth firmH2388 in his integrityH8538, though thou movedst me against him, to swallowH1104 him up without causeH2600.

4And Satan answered Jehovah and saidH559, SkinH5785 for skinH5785, yea, all that a manH376 hath will he giveH5414 for his lifeH5315;

5but put forthH7971 thy handH3027 now, and touchH5060 his boneH6106 and his fleshH1320, [and see] if he will not curse thee to thy faceH6440!

6And Jehovah saidH559 to Satan, Behold, he is in thy handH3027; onlyH389 spare his lifeH5315.

7And Satan wentH3318 forthH3318 from the presenceH6440 of Jehovah; and he smote JobH347 with a grievous botch from the soleH3709 of his footH7272 unto his crown.

8And he tookH3947 a potsherdH2789 to scrape himself with; and he satH3427 among the ashesH665.

9And his wifeH802 saidH559 to him, Dost thou stillH5750 remain firmH2388 in thine integrityH8538? curse 2GodH430 and dieH4191.

10But he saidH559 to her, Thou speakest as oneH259 of the foolishH5036 women speaketh. We have alsoH1571 received goodH2896 from 3GodH430, and should we not receive evilH7451? In all this JobH347 did not sinH2398 with his lipsH8193.
