Again there was a day
when the sons
of God
came
to present
themselves before the LORD,
and Satan
came
also among
them to present
himself before the LORD.
And the LORD
said
unto Satan,
From whence
comest
thou? And Satan
answered
the LORD,
and said,
From going to and fro
in the earth,
and from walking up and down
in it.

And the LORD
said
unto Satan,
Hast thou
considered
my servant
Job,
that there is none like him in the earth,
a perfect
and an upright
man,
one that feareth
God,
and escheweth
evil?
and still he holdeth fast
his integrity,
although thou movedst
me against him, to destroy
him without cause.

And Satan
answered
the LORD,
and said,
Skin
for skin,
yea, all that a man
hath will he give
for his life.
But
put forth
thine hand
now, and touch
his bone
and his flesh,
and he will curse
thee to thy face.
And the LORD
said
unto Satan,
Behold, he is in thine hand;
but save
his life.
So went
Satan
forth
from the presence
of the LORD,
and smote
Job
with sore
boils
from the sole
of his foot
unto his crown.
And he took
him a potsherd
to scrape
himself withal; and he sat down
among
the ashes.
Then said
his wife
unto him, Dost thou still retain
thine integrity?
curse
God,
and die.

But he said
unto her, Thou speakest
as one
of the foolish women
speaketh.
What?
shall we receive
good
at the hand of God,
and shall we not receive
evil?
In all this did not Job
sin
with his lips.

Now when Job's
three
friends
heard
of all this evil
that was come
upon him, they came
every one
from his own place;
Eliphaz
the Temanite,
and Bildad
the Shuhite,
and Zophar
the Naamathite:
for they had made an appointment
together
to come
to mourn
with him and to comfort
him.

And when they lifted up
their eyes
afar off,
and knew
him not, they lifted up
their voice,
and wept;
and they rent
every one
his mantle,
and sprinkled
dust
upon their heads
toward heaven.

So they sat down
with him upon the ground
seven
days
and seven
nights,
and none spake
a word
unto him: for they saw
that his grief
was very
great.
