Job 2:3-7

3The Lord said to Satan, “Have you 1considered My servant Job? For there is no one like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man 2fearing God and turning away from evil. And he still 3holds firm to his integrity, although you incited Me against him to 4ruin him without cause.” 4Satan answered the Lord and said, “Skin for skin! Yes, all that a man has, he will give for his life. 55However, reach out with Your hand now, and 6touch his bone and his flesh; he will curse You to Your face!” 6So the Lord said to Satan, “Behold, he is in your 7power, only spare his life.”

7Then Satan went out from the presence of the Lord and struck Job with 8severe boils from the sole of his foot to the top of his head.
