Page 1 / 2 (Job 1:1–Job 37:24)
There was a man in the country of Uz named Job. He was a man of complete integrity, who feared God and turned away from evil.
His estate included seven thousand sheep and goats, three thousand camels, five hundred yoke of oxen, five hundred female donkeys, and a very large number of servants. Job was the greatest man among all the people of the east.
Then the LORD said to Satan, “Have you considered my servant Job? No one else on earth is like him, a man of perfect integrity, who fears God and turns away from evil.”
Then the LORD said to Satan, “Have you considered my servant Job? No one else on earth is like him, a man of perfect integrity, who fears God and turns away from evil. He still retains his integrity, even though you incited me against him, to destroy him for no good reason.”
“Skin for skin! ” Satan answered the LORD. “A man will give up everything he owns in exchange for his life.
See how happy is the person whom God corrects;
so do not reject the discipline of the Almighty.
Isn’t each person consigned to forced labor on earth?
Are not his days like those of a hired worker?
As a cloud fades away and vanishes,
so the one who goes down to Sheol will never rise again.
What is a mere human, that you think so highly of him
and pay so much attention to him?
If I have sinned, what have I done to you,
Watcher of humanity?
Why have you made me your target,
so that I have become a burden to you?[fn]
For he is not a man like me, that I can answer him,
that we can take each other to court.
But a stupid person will gain understanding
as soon as a wild donkey is born a human!
The life of every living thing is in his hand,
as well as the breath of all humanity.
so people lie down never to rise again.
They will not wake up until the heavens are no more;
they will not stir from their sleep.
When a person dies, will he come back to life?
If so, I would wait all the days of my struggle
until my relief comes.
as water wears away stones
and torrents wash away the soil from the land,
so you destroy a man’s hope.
I wish that someone might argue for a man with God
just as anyone[fn] would for a friend.
The dirt on his grave is[fn] sweet to him.
Everyone follows behind him,
and those who go before him are without number.
This is a wicked man’s lot from God,
the inheritance the ruthless receive from the Almighty.
It is hidden from the eyes of every living thing
and concealed from the birds of the sky.
He said to mankind,
“The fear of the Lord — that is wisdom.
And to turn from evil is understanding.”
But Job has not directed his argument to me,
and I will not respond to him with your arguments.
In a dream, a vision in the night,
when deep sleep comes over people
as they slumber on their beds,
If there is an angel on his side,
one mediator out of a thousand,
to tell a person what is right for him[fn]
then his flesh will be healthier[fn] than in his youth,
and he will return to the days of his youthful vigor.
He will pray to God, and God will delight in him.
That person will see his face with a shout of joy,
and God will restore his righteousness to him.
He will look at men and say,
“I have sinned and perverted what was right;
yet I did not get what I deserved.[fn]
For he repays a person according to his deeds,
and he gives him what his conduct deserves.[fn]
But when God is silent, who can declare him guilty?
When he hides his face, who can see him?
Yet he watches over both individuals and nations,
Your wickedness affects a person like yourself,
and your righteousness, a son of man.[fn]
