Page 1 / 4 (Job 1:8–Job 11:6)
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.”
“Haven’t you placed a hedge around him, his household, and everything he owns? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land.
“But stretch out your hand and strike everything he owns, and he will surely curse you to your face.”
“Very well,” the LORD told Satan, “everything he owns is in your power. However, do not lay a hand on Job himself.” So Satan left the LORD’s presence.
“the Sabeans swooped down and took them away. They struck down the servants with the sword, and I alone have escaped to tell you! ”
He was still speaking when another messenger came and reported, “God’s fire fell from heaven. It burned the sheep and the servants and devoured them, and I alone have escaped to tell you! ”
That messenger was still speaking when yet another came and reported, “The Chaldeans formed three bands, made a raid on the camels, and took them away. They struck down the servants with the sword, and I alone have escaped to tell you! ”
He was still speaking when another messenger came and reported, “Your sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother’s house.
“Suddenly a powerful wind swept in from the desert and struck the four corners of the house. It collapsed on the young people so that they died, and I alone have escaped to tell you! ”
The LORD asked Satan, “Where have you come from? ”
“From roaming through the earth,” Satan answered him, “and walking around on it.”
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.”
“But stretch out your hand and strike his flesh and bones, and he will surely curse you to your face.”
His wife said to him, “Are you still holding on to your integrity? Curse God and die! ”
Should anyone try to speak with you
when you are exhausted?
Yet who can keep from speaking?
But now that this has happened to you,
you have become exhausted.
It strikes you, and you are dismayed.
For you will have a covenant with the stones of the field,
and the wild animals will be at peace with you.
You will know that your tent is secure,
and nothing will be missing when you inspect your home.
You will also know that your offspring will be many
and your descendants like the grass of the earth.
So this is what you have now become to me.[fn]
When you see something dreadful, you are afraid.
Do you think that you can disprove my words
or that a despairing man’s words are mere wind?
No doubt you would cast lots for a fatherless child
and negotiate a price to sell your friend.
The eye of anyone who looks on me
will no longer see me.
Your eyes will look for me, but I will be gone.
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]
if you are pure and upright,
then he will move even now on your behalf
and restore the home where your righteousness dwells.
“Is it good for you to oppress,
to reject the work of your hands,
and favor[fn] the plans of the wicked?
“even though you know that I am not wicked
and that there is no one who can rescue from your power?
“Yet you concealed these thoughts in your heart;
I know that this was your hidden plan:[fn]
Should your babbling put others to silence,
so that you can keep on ridiculing
with no one to humiliate you?
1. Job 1:8–Job 11:6
