Job 1:13-17
13One day when Job’s sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother’s home,
14a messenger came to Job. He said, “While the oxen were plowing and the donkeys were grazing nearby,
15men from Sheba attacked. They took the livestock and massacred the servants. I’m the only one who has escaped to tell you.”
16While he was still speaking, another ⌞messenger⌟ came and said, “A fire from God fell from heaven and completely burned your flocks and servants. I’m the only one who has escaped to tell you.”
17While he was still speaking, another ⌞messenger⌟ came and said, “The Chaldeans formed three companies and made a raid on the camels. They took the camels and massacred the servants. I’m the only one who has escaped to tell you.”
