• 1 There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil.
• 2 And there were born unto him seven sons and three daughters.
• 3 His substance also was seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she asses, and a very great household; so that this man was the greatest of all the men of the east.
• 4 And his sons went and feasted in their houses, every one his day; and sent and called for their three sisters to eat and to drink with them.
• 5 And it was so, when the days of their feasting were gone about, that Job sent and sanctified them, and rose up early in the morning, and offered burnt offerings according to the number of them all: for Job said, It may be that my sons have sinned, and cursed God in their hearts. Thus did Job continually.

• 10 Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.
• 11 But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will curse thee to thy face.
• 12 And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, all that he hath is in thy power; only upon himself put not forth thine hand. So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD.
• 13 And there was a day when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother’s house:

• 15 And the Sabeans fell upon them, and took them away; yea, they have slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.
• 16 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The fire of God is fallen from heaven, and hath burned up the sheep, and the servants, and consumed them; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.
• 17 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The Chaldeans made out three bands, and fell upon the camels, and have carried them away, yea, and slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.
• 18 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, Thy sons and thy daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother’s house:

• 21 And said, Naked came I out of my mother’s womb, and naked shall I return thither: the LORD gave, and the LORD hath taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD.
• 22 In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly.

• 7 And the LORD ^{H3068 EDS} said ^{H559 W-VQY3MS} unto ^{H413 PREP} Satan ^{H7854 D-NMS} , Whence ^{H370 M-ADV} comest ^{H935 VQY2MS} thou ?

• 1 A man there hath been in the land of Uz -- Job his name -- and that man hath been perfect and upright -- both fearing God, and turning aside from evil.
• 2 And there are borne to him seven sons and three daughters,
• 3 and his substance is seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred pairs of oxen, and five hundred she-asses, and a service very abundant; and that man is greater than any of the sons of the east.
• 4 And his sons have gone and made a banquet -- the house of each in his day -- and have sent and called to their three sisters to eat and to drink with them;
• 5 and it cometh to pass, when they have gone round the days of the banquet, that Job doth send and sanctify them, and hath risen early in the morning, and caused to ascend burnt-offerings -- the number of them all -- for Job said, `Perhaps my sons have sinned, yet blessed God in their heart.` Thus doth Job all the days.
• 6 And the day is, that sons of God come in to station themselves by Jehovah, and there doth come also the Adversary in their midst.
• 7 And Jehovah saith unto the Adversary, `Whence comest thou?` And the Adversary answereth Jehovah and saith, `From going to and fro in the land, and from walking up and down on it.`
• 8 And Jehovah saith unto the Adversary, `Hast thou set thy heart against My servant Job because there is none like him in the land, a man perfect and upright, fearing God, and turning aside from evil?`
• 9 And the Adversary answereth Jehovah and saith, `For nought is Job fearing God?
• 10 Hast not Thou made a hedge for him, and for his house, and for all that he hath -- round about?
• 11 The work of his hands Thou hast blessed, and his substance hath spread in the land, and yet, put forth, I pray Thee, Thy hand, and strike against anything that he hath -- if not: to Thy face he doth bless Thee!`
• 12 And Jehovah saith unto the Adversary, `Lo, all that he hath is in thy hand, only unto him put not forth thy hand.` And the Adversary goeth out from the presence of Jehovah.
• 13 And the day is, that his sons and his daughters are eating, and drinking wine, in the house of their brother, the first-born.
• 14 And a messenger hath come in unto Job and saith, `The oxen have been plowing, and the she-asses feeding by their sides,
• 15 and Sheba doth fall, and take them, and the young men they have smitten by the mouth of the sword, and I am escaped -- only I alone -- to declare it to thee.`
• 16 While this one is speaking another also hath come and saith, `Fire of God hath fallen from the heavens, and burneth among the flock, and among the young men, and consumeth them, and I am escaped -- only I alone -- to declare it to thee.`
• 17 While this one is speaking another also hath come and saith, `Chaldeans made three heads, and rush on the camels, and take them, and the young men they have smitten by the mouth of the sword, and I am escaped -- only I alone -- to declare it to thee.`
• 18 While this one is speaking another also hath come and saith, `Thy sons and thy daughters are eating, and drinking wine, in the house of their brother, the first-born.
• 19 And lo, a great wind hath come from over the wilderness, and striketh against the four corners of the house, and it falleth on the young men, and they are dead, and I am escaped -- only I alone -- to declare it to thee.`
• 20 And Job riseth, and rendeth his robe, and shaveth his head, and falleth to the earth, and doth obeisance,
• 21 and he saith, `Naked came I forth from the womb of my mother, and naked I turn back thither: Jehovah hath given and Jehovah hath taken: let the name of Jehovah be blessed.`
• 22 In all this Job hath not sinned, nor given folly to God.

• 1 There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and turned away from evil.
• 2 And there were born unto him seven sons and three daughters.
• 3 His substance also was seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she-asses, and a very great household; so that this man was the greatest of all the children of the east.
• 4 And his sons went and held a feast in the house of each one upon his day; and they sent and called for their three sisters to eat and to drink with them.
• 5 And it was so, when the days of their feasting were gone about, that Job sent and sanctified them, and rose up early in the morning, and offered burnt-offerings according to the number of them all: for Job said, It may be that my sons have sinned, and renounced God in their hearts. Thus did Job continually.
• 6 Now it came to pass on the day when the sons of God came to present themselves before Jehovah, that Satan also came among them.
• 7 And Jehovah said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered Jehovah, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.
• 8 And Jehovah said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job? for there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and turneth away from evil.
• 9 Then Satan answered Jehovah, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought?
• 10 Hast not thou made a hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath, on every side? thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.
• 11 But put forth thy hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will renounce thee to thy face.
• 12 And Jehovah said unto Satan, Behold, all that he hath is in thy power; only upon himself put not forth thy hand. So Satan went forth from the presence of Jehovah.
• 13 And it fell on a day when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brothers house,

• 16 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The fire of God is fallen from heaven, and hath burned up the sheep and the servants, and consumed them; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.
• 17 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The Chaldeans made three bands, and fell upon the camels, and have taken them away, yea, and slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.

• 20 Then Job arose, and rent his robe, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped;
• 21 and he said, Naked came I out of my mothers womb, and naked shall I return thither: Jehovah gave, and Jehovah hath taken away; blessed be the name of Jehovah.
• 22 In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly.

Proverbs 3:26

• 26 For Jehovah will be thy confidence, And will keep thy foot from being taken.

• 1 There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job. That man was blameless and upright, and one who feared God, and turned away from evil.
• 2 There were born to him seven sons and three daughters.
• 3 His possessions also were seven thousand sheep, three thousand camels, five hundred yoke of oxen, five hundred she-donkeys, and a very great household; so that this man was the greatest of all the children of the east.
• 4 His sons went and held a feast in the house of each one on his birthday; and they sent and called for their three sisters to eat and to drink with them.
• 5 It was so, when the days of their feasting had run their course, that Job sent and sanctified them, and rose up early in the morning, and offered burnt offerings according to the number of them all. For Job said, "It may be that my sons have sinned, and renounced God in their hearts." Thus did Job continually.
• 6 Now it happened on the day when the sons of God came to present themselves before Yahweh, that Satan also came among them.
• 7 Yahweh said to Satan, "Where have you come from?" Then Satan answered Yahweh, and said, "From going back and forth in the earth, and from walking up and down in it."
• 8 Yahweh said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant, Job? For there is none like him in the earth, a blameless and an upright man, one who fears God, and turns away from evil."
• 9 Then Satan answered Yahweh, and said, "Does Job fear God for nothing?
• 10 Haven't you made a hedge around him, and around his house, and around all that he has, on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.
• 11 But put forth your hand now, and touch all that he has, and he will renounce you to your face."
• 12 Yahweh said to Satan, "Behold, all that he has is in your power. Only on himself don't put forth your hand." So Satan went forth from the presence of Yahweh.
• 13 It fell on a day when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house,
• 14 that there came a messenger to Job, and said, "The oxen were plowing, and the donkeys feeding beside them,
• 15 and the Sabeans attacked, and took them away. Yes, they have killed the servants with the edge of the sword, and I alone have escaped to tell you."
• 16 While he was still speaking, there also came another, and said, "The fire of God has fallen from the sky, and has burned up the sheep and the servants, and consumed them, and I alone have escaped to tell you."
• 17 While he was still speaking, there came also another, and said, "The Chaldeans made three bands, and swept down on the camels, and have taken them away, yes, and killed the servants with the edge of the sword; and I alone have escaped to tell you."
• 18 While he was still speaking, there came also another, and said, "Your sons and your daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house,
• 19 and, behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and struck the four corners of the house, and it fell on the young men, and they are dead. I alone have escaped to tell you."
• 20 Then Job arose, and tore his robe, and shaved his head, and fell down on the ground, and worshiped.
• 21 He said, "Naked I came out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return there. Yahweh gave, and Yahweh has taken away. Blessed be the name of Yahweh."
• 22 In all this, Job did not sin, nor charge God with wrongdoing.

Proverbs 3:26

• 26 For Yahweh will be your confidence, And will keep your foot from being taken.

Job 1:1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22

• 1 There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil.
• 2 And there were born unto him seven sons and three daughters.
• 3 His substance also was seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she-asses, and a very great household; so that this man was the greatest of all the children of the east.
• 4 And his sons went and held a feast in the house of each one upon his day; and they sent and called for their three sisters to eat and to drink with them.
• 5 And it was so, when the days of their feasting were gone about, that Job sent and sanctified them, and rose up early in the morning, and offered burn offerings according to the number of them all: for Job said, It may be that my sons have sinned, and renounced God in their hearts. Thus did Job continually.
• 6 Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them.
• 7 And the LORD said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.
• 8 And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job? for there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an uptight man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil.
• 9 Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought?
• 10 Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath, on every side? thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.
• 11 But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will renounce thee to thy face.
• 12 And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, all that he hath is in thy power; only upon himself put not forth thine hand. So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD.
• 13 And it fell on a day when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother-s house,
• 14 that there came a messenger unto Job, and said, The oxen were plowing, and the asses feeding beside them:
• 15 and the Sabeans fell {cf15i upon them}, and took them away; yea, they have slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.
• 16 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The fire of God is fallen from heaven, and hath burned up the sheep, and the servants, and consumed them; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.
• 17 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The Chaldeans made three bands, and fell upon the camels, and have taken them away, yea, and slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.
• 18 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, Thy sons and thy daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother-s house:
• 19 and, behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and smote the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they are dead; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.
• 20 Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped;
• 21 and he said, Naked came I out of my mother-s womb, and naked shall I return thither: the LORD gave, and the LORD hath taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD.
• 22 In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God with foolishness.

Proverbs 3:26

• 26 For the LORD shall be thy confidence, and shall keep thy foot from being taken.

Job 1:1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22

• 1 There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil.
• 2 And there were born to him seven sons and three daughters.
• 3 His substance also was seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she asses, and a very great household; so that this man was the greatest of all the men of the east.
• 4 And his sons went and feasted in their houses, every one his day; and sent and called for their three sisters to eat and to drink with them.
• 5 And it was so, when the days of their feasting were gone about, that Job sent and sanctified them, and rose up early in the morning, and offered burnt offerings according to the number of them all: for Job said, It may be that my sons have sinned, and cursed God in their hearts. Thus did Job continually.
• 6 Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them.
• 7 And the LORD said to Satan, From where come you? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.
• 8 And the LORD said to Satan, Have you considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that fears God, and eschews evil?
• 9 Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, Does Job fear God for nothing?
• 10 Have not you made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he has on every side? you have blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.
• 11 But put forth your hand now, and touch all that he has, and he will curse you to your face.
• 12 And the LORD said to Satan, Behold, all that he has is in your power; only on himself put not forth your hand. So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD.
• 13 And there was a day when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother's house:
• 14 And there came a messenger to Job, and said, The oxen were plowing, and the asses feeding beside them:
• 15 And the Sabeans fell on them, and took them away; yes, they have slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell you.
• 16 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The fire of God is fallen from heaven, and has burned up the sheep, and the servants, and consumed them; and I only am escaped alone to tell you.
• 17 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The Chaldeans made out three bands, and fell on the camels, and have carried them away, yes, and slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell you.
• 18 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, Your sons and your daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother's house:
• 19 And, behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and smote the four corners of the house, and it fell on the young men, and they are dead; and I only am escaped alone to tell you.
• 20 Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down on the ground, and worshipped,
• 21 And said, Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: the LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD.
• 22 In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly.

Proverbs 3:26

• 26 For the LORD shall be your confidence, and shall keep your foot from being taken.

Job 1:1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22

• 1 There was a man in the land of Uz whose name was Job. And that man was pure and upright, one who feared God and turned away from evil.
• 2 Seven sons and three daughters were born to him.
• 3 His possessions included 7,000 sheep, 3,000 camels, 500 yoke of oxen, and 500 female donkeys; in addition he had a very great household. Thus he was the greatest of all the people in the east.
• 4 Now his sons used to go and hold a feast in the house of each one in turn, and they would send and invite their three sisters to eat and to drink with them.
• 5 When the days of their feasting were finished, Job would send for them and sanctify them; he would get up early in the morning and offer burnt offerings according to the number of them all. For Job thought, "Perhaps my children have sinned and cursed God in their hearts." This was Job's customary practice.
• 6 Now the day came when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD— and Satan also arrived among them.
• 7 The LORD said to Satan, "Where have you come from?" And Satan answered the LORD, "From roving about on the earth, and from walking back and forth across it."
• 8 So the LORD said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant Job? There is no one like him on the earth, a pure and upright man, one who fears God and turns away from evil."
• 9 Then Satan answered the LORD, "Is it for nothing that Job fears God?
• 10 Have you not made a hedge around him and his household and all that he has on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his livestock have increased in the land.
• 11 But extend your hand and strike everything he has, and he will no doubt curse you to your face!"
• 12 So the LORD said to Satan, "All right then, everything he has is in your power. Only do not extend your hand against the man himself!" So Satan went out from the presence of the LORD.
• 13 Now the day came when Job's sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother's house,
• 14 and a messenger came to Job, saying, "The oxen were plowing and the donkeys were grazing beside them,
• 15 and the Sabeans swooped down and carried them all away, and they killed the servants with the sword! And I— only I alone— escaped to tell you!"
• 16 While this one was still speaking, another messenger arrived and said, "The fire of God has fallen from heaven and has burned up the sheep and the servants— it has consumed them! And I— only I alone— escaped to tell you!"
• 17 While this one was still speaking another messenger arrived and said, "The Chaldeans formed three bands and made a raid on the camels and carried them all away, and they killed the servants with the sword! And I— only I alone— escaped to tell you!"
• 18 While this one was still speaking another messenger arrived and said, "Your sons and your daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother's house,
• 19 and suddenly a great wind swept across the wilderness and struck the four corners of the house, and it fell on the young people, and they died! And I— only I alone— escaped to tell you!"
• 20 Then Job got up and tore his robe. He shaved his head, and then he threw himself down with his face to the ground.
• 21 He said, "Naked I came from my mother's womb, and naked I will return there. The LORD gives, and the LORD takes away. May the name of the LORD be blessed!"
• 22 In all this Job did not sin, nor did he charge God with moral impropriety.

Proverbs 3:26

• 26 for the LORD will be the source of your confidence, and he will guard your foot from being caught in a trap.

Job 1:1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22

• 1 There was a man named Job who lived in the country of Uz. He was a good, honest man. He respected God and refused to do evil.
• 2 Job had seven sons and three daughters.
• 3 He owned 7000 sheep, 3000 camels, 1000 oxen, and 500 female donkeys. He had many servants. He was the richest man in the east.
• 4 Job's sons took turns having dinner parties in their homes, and they invited their sisters.
• 5 The day after each of these parties, Job got up early in the morning, sent for his children, and offered a burnt offering for each of them. He thought, "Maybe my children were careless and sinned against God at their party." Job always did this so that his children would be forgiven of their sins.
• 6 Then the day came for the angels to meet with the Lord. Even Satan was there with them.
• 7 The Lord said to Satan, "Where have you been?" Satan answered the Lord, "I have been roaming around the earth, going from place to place."
• 8 Then the Lord said to Satan, "Have you noticed my servant Job? There is no one on earth like him. He is a good, faithful man. He respects God and refuses to do evil."
• 9 Satan answered, "But Job has a good reason to respect you.
• 10 You always protect him, his family, and everything he has. You have blessed him and made him successful in everything he does. He is so wealthy that his herds and flocks are all over the country.
• 11 But if you were to destroy everything he has, I promise you that he would curse you to your face."
• 12 The Lord said to Satan, "All right, do whatever you want with anything that he has, but don't hurt Job himself." Then Satan left the meeting.
• 13 One day Job's sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine at the oldest brother's house.
• 14 A messenger came to Job and said, "We were plowing the fields with the oxen and the donkeys were eating grass nearby,
• 15 when some Sabeans attacked us and took your animals! They killed the other servants. I am the only one who escaped to come and tell you the news!"
• 16 That messenger was still speaking when another one came in and said, "A bolt of lightning struck your sheep and servants and burned them up. I am the only one who escaped to come and tell you the news!"
• 17 That messenger was still speaking when another one came in and said, "The Chaldeans sent out three raiding parties that attacked us and took the camels! They killed the other servants. I am the only one who escaped to come and tell you the news!"
• 18 That messenger was still speaking when another one came in and said, "Your sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine at the oldest brother's house.
• 19 A strong wind suddenly came in from across the desert and blew the house down. It fell on your sons and daughters, and they are all dead. I am the only one who escaped to come and tell you the news!"
• 20 When Job heard this, he got up, tore his clothes, and shaved his head to show his sadness. Then he fell to the ground to bow down before God
• 21 and said, "When I was born into this world, I was naked and had nothing. When I die and leave this world, I will be naked and have nothing. The Lord gives, and the Lord takes away. Praise the name of the Lord!"
• 22 Even after all this, Job did not sin. He did not accuse God of doing anything wrong.
