Job 1:1-5

1There was a manH376 in the landH776 of UzH5780, whose nameH8034 was JobH347; and that manH3761 was perfectH8535 and uprightH3477, and one that fearedH3373 GodH430, and turned away fromH5493 evilH7451. 2And there were bornH3205 to him sevenH7651 sonsH1121 and threeH7969 daughtersH1323. 3His substanceH47352 also was sevenH7651 thousandH505 sheepH6629, and threeH7969 thousandH505 camelsH1581, and fiveH2568 hundredH3967 yokeH6776 of oxenH1241, and fiveH2568 hundredH3967 female donkeysH860, and a veryH3966 greatH7227 householdH5657;3 so that this manH376 was the greatestH1419 of all the menH11214 of the eastH6924.

4And his sonsH1121 wentH1980 and feastedH4960H6213 in their housesH1004, every oneH376 his dayH3117; and sentH7971 and calledH7121 for their threeH7969 sistersH269 to eatH398 and to drinkH8354 with them. 5And it was so, when the daysH3117 of their feastingH4960 were endedH5362, that JobH347 sentH7971 and sanctifiedH6942 them, and rose earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, and offeredH5927 burnt offeringsH5930 according to the numberH4557 of them all: for JobH347 saidH559, It may beH194 that my sonsH1121 have sinnedH2398, and cursedH12885 GodH430 in their heartsH3824. Thus didH6213 JobH347 continuallyH3117.6
