Job 1:1-5

1There was a manH376 in the landH776 of UzH5780, whoseH376 nameH8034 was JobH347; and that manH376 was perfectH8535 and uprightH3477, and one that feared GodH430, and eschewed evilH7451.

2And there were bornH3205 unto him sevenH7651 sonsH1121 and threeH7969 daughtersH1323.

3His substance also was sevenH7651 thousandH505 sheepH6629, and threeH7969 thousandH505 camelsH1581, and fiveH2568 hundredH3967 yokeH6776 of oxenH1241, and fiveH2568 hundredH3967 she-asses, and a veryH3966 greatH1419 householdH5657; soH1961 that this manH376 was the greatestH1419 of allH3605 the childrenH1121 of the eastH6924.

4And his sonsH1121 wentH1980 and heldH6213 a feastH4960 in the houseH1004 of eachH376 one uponH7121 his dayH3117; and they sentH7971 and calledH7121 for their threeH7969 sistersH269 to eatH398 and to drinkH8354 with them.

5And it was soH6213, when the daysH3117 of their feastingH4960 were goneH5927 aboutH1961, that JobH347 sentH7971 and sanctifiedH6942 them, and roseH7925 upH5927 earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, and offeredH5927 burnH5927 offeringsH5930 accordingH3602 to the numberH4557 of them allH3605: for JobH347 saidH559, It may be that my sonsH1121 have sinnedH2398, and renounced GodH430 in their heartsH3824. ThusH3602 didH6213 JobH347 continuallyH3117.
