Job 2:11-13

11Now when Job’sH347 threeH7969 friendsH7453 heardH8085 about allH3605 thisH2088 adversityH7463 that had comeH935 uponH935 him, they cameH935, eachH376 oneH376 from his own placeH4725--EliphazH464 the 1TemaniteH8489, BildadH1085 the 2ShuhiteH7747, and ZopharH6691 the NaamathiteH5284; and they madeH3259 anH3259 appointmentH3259 togetherH3164 to comeH935 to 3sympathizeH5110 with him and comfortH5162 him.

12When they 4lookedH5375H5869 from a distanceH7350 and did not recognizeH5234 him, they raisedH5375 their voicesH6963 and weptH1058. And eachH376 of them 5toreH7167 his robeH4598, and they 6threwH2236 dustH6083 overH5921 their headsH7218 toward the skyH8064.

137Then they satH3427 downH3427 on the groundH776 with him for sevenH7651 daysH3117 and sevenH7651 nightsH3915, with noH369 oneH369 speakingH1696 a wordH1697 to him, for they sawH7200 that his painH3511 wasH1431 veryH3966 greatH1431.
