Job 2:3-9

3And the LORDH3068 saidH559 to SatanH7854, Hast thouH7760 consideredH3820 my servantH5650 JobH347, that there is none like him on the earthH776, a perfectH8535 and an uprightH3477 manH376, one that fearethH3373 GodH430, and turneth away fromH5493 evilH7451? and still he holdeth fastH2388 his integrityH8538, although thou didst moveH5496 me against him, to destroyH1104 him without causeH2600.1 4And SatanH7854 answeredH6030 the LORDH3068, and saidH559, SkinH5785 for skinH5785, even, all that a manH376 hath will he giveH5414 for his lifeH5315. 5ButH199 put forthH7971 thy handH3027 now, and touchH5060 his boneH6106 and his fleshH1320, and he will curseH1288 thee to thy faceH6440. 6And the LORDH3068 saidH559 to SatanH7854, Behold, he is in thy handH3027; but saveH8104 his lifeH5315.2

7So SatanH7854 went forthH3318 from the presenceH6440 of the LORDH3068, and smoteH5221 JobH347 with severeH7451 boilsH7822 from the soleH3709 of his footH7272 to his crownH6936. 8And he tookH3947 a potsherdH2789 to scrapeH1623 himself with; and he sat downH3427 amongH8432 the ashesH665. 9Then saidH559 his wifeH802 to him, Dost thou still retainH2388 thy integrityH8538? curseH1288 GodH430, and dieH4191.
