1
There was a man
in the land
of Uz
whose name
was Job;
and that man
was blameless,
upright,
fearing
God
and turning away
from evil.
2
Seven
sons
and three
daughters
were born
to him.
3
His possessions
also were 7,000
sheep,
3,000
camels,
500
yoke
of oxen,
500
female donkeys,
and very
many
servants;
and that man
was the greatest
of all
the men
of the east.
4
His sons
used to go
and hold
a feast
in the house
of each one
on his day,
and they would send
and invite
their three
sisters
to eat
and drink
with them.
5
When
the days
of feasting
had completed their cycle,
Job
would send
and consecrate
them, rising up early
in the morning
and offering
burnt offerings
according to the number
of them all;
for
Job
said,
"Perhaps
my sons
have sinned
and cursed
God
in their hearts."
Thus
Job
did
continually.
6
Now there was a day
when the sons
of God
came
to present
themselves before
the LORD,
and Satan
also
came
among
them.
7
The LORD
said
to Satan,
"From where
do you come?"
Then Satan
answered
the LORD
and
said
,
"From roaming about
on the earth
and walking around
on it."
8
The LORD
said
to Satan,
"Have you considered
My servant
Job?
For there is no one
like
him on the earth,
a blameless
and upright
man,
fearing
God
and turning away
from evil."
9
Then Satan
answered
the LORD,
"Does Job
fear
God
for nothing?
10
"Have You not made a hedge
about
him and his house
and all
that he has, on every side?
You have blessed
the work
of his hands,
and his possessions
have increased
in the land.
11
"But put forth
Your hand
now
and touch
all
that he has; he will surely
curse
You to Your face."
12
Then the LORD
said
to Satan,
"Behold,
all
that he has is in your power,
only
do not put forth
your hand
on him." So Satan
departed
from the presence
of the LORD.
13
Now on the day
when his sons
and his daughters
were eating
and drinking
wine
in their oldest
brother's
house,
14
a messenger
came
to Job
and said,
"The oxen
were plowing
and the donkeys
feeding
beside
them,
15
and the Sabeans
attacked
and took
them. They also slew
the servants
with the edge
of the sword,
and I alone
have escaped
to tell
you."
16
While he was still
speaking,
another
also came
and said,
"The fire
of God
fell
from heaven
and burned
up the sheep
and the servants
and consumed
them, and I alone
have escaped
to tell
you."
17
While he was still
speaking,
another
also came
and said,
"The Chaldeans
formed
three
bands
and made
a raid
on the camels
and took
them and slew
the servants
with the edge
of the sword,
and I alone
have escaped
to tell
you."
18
While he was still speaking,
another
also came
and said,
"Your sons
and your daughters
were eating
and drinking
wine
in their oldest
brother's
house,
19
and behold,
a great
wind
came
from across
the wilderness
and struck
the four
corners
of the house,
and it fell
on the young people
and they died,
and I alone
have escaped
to tell
you."
20
Then Job
arose
and tore
his robe
and shaved
his head,
and he fell
to the ground
and worshiped.
21
He said,
"Naked
I came
from my mother's
womb,
And naked
I shall return
there.
The LORD
gave
and the LORD
has taken
away. Blessed
be the name
of the LORD."
22
Through all
this
Job
did not sin
nor
did he blame
God.
