Job 1:6-11
61Now there was a dayH3117 when the 2sonsH1121 of GodH430 cameH935 to presentH3320 themselves beforeH5921 the LordH3068, and 3SatanH7854 alsoH1571 cameH935 amongH8432 them.
7The LordH3068 saidH559 to SatanH7854, “From whereH370 do you comeH935?” Then SatanH7854 answeredH6030 the LordH3068 and saidH559, “4From roamingH7751 aboutH7751 on the earthH776 and walkingH1980 aroundH1980 on it.”
8The LordH3068 saidH559 to SatanH7854, “Have you 5consideredH7760H3820H5921 6My servantH5650 JobH347? For thereH369 is noH369 oneH369 likeH3644 him on the earthH776, 7a blamelessH8535 and uprightH3477 manH376, 8fearingH3372 GodH430 and turningH5493 awayH5493 from evilH7451.”
9Then 9SatanH7854 answeredH6030 the 10LordH3068, “Does JobH347 fearH3372 GodH430 for nothingH2600?
1011Have You not madeH7753 a hedgeH7753 aboutH1157 him and his houseH1004 and allH3605 that he has, on everyH5439 sideH5439? 12You have blessedH1288 the workH4639 of his handsH3027, and his 13possessionsH4735 have increasedH6555 in the landH776.
1114But putH7971 forthH7971 Your handH3027 nowH4994 and 15touchH5060 allH3605 that he has; he will surelyH518H3808 curseH1288 You to Your faceH6440.”
