Job 1:8-22

1:8

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Satan
<07854>_,

Hast thou considered
<07760> (8804) <03820>

my servant
<05650>

Job
<0347>_,

that [there is] none like him in the earth
<0776>_,

a perfect
<08535>

and an upright
<03477>

man
<0376>_,

one that feareth
<03373>

God
<0430>_,

and escheweth
<05493> (8802)

evil
<07451>_?

{considered: Heb. set thy heart on}

1:9

Then Satan
<07854>

answered
<06030> (8799)

the LORD
<03068>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Doth Job
<0347>

fear
<03372> (8804)

God
<0430>

for nought
<02600>_?

1:10

Hast not thou made an hedge
<07753> (8804)

about him, and about
<01157>

his house
<01004>_,

and about all that he hath on every side
<05439>_?

thou hast blessed
<01288> (8765)

the work
<04639>

of his hands
<03027>_,

and his substance
<04735>

is increased
<06555> (8804)

in the land
<0776>_.

{substance: or, cattle}

1:11

But
<0199>

put forth
<07971> (8798)

thine hand
<03027>

now, and touch
<05060> (8798)

all that he hath, and he will curse
<01288> (8762) <03808>

thee to thy face
<06440>_.

{and he...: Heb. if he curse thee not to thy face}

1:12

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Satan
<07854>_,

Behold, all that he hath [is] in thy power
<03027>_;

only upon himself put not forth
<07971> (8799)

thine hand
<03027>_.

So Satan
<07854>

went forth
<03318> (8799)

from the presence
<06440>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

{power: Heb. hand}

1:13

And there was a day
<03117>

when his sons
<01121>

and his daughters
<01323>

[were] eating
<0398> (8802)

and drinking
<08354> (8802)

wine
<03196>

in their eldest
<01060>

brother's
<0251>

house
<01004>_:

1:14

And there came
<0935> (8804)

a messenger
<04397>

unto Job
<0347>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

The oxen
<01241>

were plowing
<02790> (8802)_,

and the asses
<0860>

feeding
<07462> (8802)

beside
<03027>

them:

1:15

And the Sabeans
<07614>

fell
<05307> (8799)

[upon them], and took them away
<03947> (8799)_;

yea, they have slain
<05221> (8689)

the servants
<05288>

with the edge
<06310>

of the sword
<02719>_;

and I only am escaped
<04422> (8735)

alone to tell
<05046> (8687)

thee.

1:16

While he [was] yet speaking
<01696> (8764)_,

there came
<0935> (8802)

also another, and said
<0559> (8799)_,

The fire
<0784>

of God
<0430>

is fallen
<05307> (8804)

from heaven
<08064>_,

and hath burned up
<01197> (8799)

the sheep
<06629>_,

and the servants
<05288>_,

and consumed
<0398> (8799)

them; and I only am escaped
<04422> (8735)

alone to tell
<05046> (8687)

thee. {The fire...: or, A great fire}

1:17

While he [was] yet speaking
<01696> (8764)_,

there came
<0935> (8802)

also another, and said
<0559> (8799)_,

The Chaldeans
<03778>

made out
<07760> (8804)

three
<07969>

bands
<07218>_,

and fell
<06584> (8799)

upon the camels
<01581>_,

and have carried them away
<03947> (8799)_,

yea, and slain
<05221> (8689)

the servants
<05288>

with the edge
<06310>

of the sword
<02719>_;

and I only am escaped
<04422> (8735)

alone to tell
<05046> (8687)

thee. {fell: Heb. rushed}

1:18

While he [was] yet speaking
<01696> (8764)_,

there came
<0935> (8802)

also another, and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Thy sons
<01121>

and thy daughters
<01323>

[were] eating
<0398> (8802)

and drinking
<08354> (8802)

wine
<03196>

in their eldest
<01060>

brother's
<0251>

house
<01004>_:

1:19

And, behold, there came
<0935> (8804)

a great
<01419>

wind
<07307>

from
<05676>

the wilderness
<04057>_,

and smote
<05060> (8799)

the four
<0702>

corners
<06438>

of the house
<01004>_,

and it fell
<05307> (8799)

upon the young men
<05288>_,

and they are dead
<04191> (8799)_;

and I only am escaped
<04422> (8735)

alone to tell
<05046> (8687)

thee. {from...: Heb. from aside, etc}

1:20

Then Job
<0347>

arose
<06965> (8799)_,

and rent
<07167> (8799)

his mantle
<04598>_,

and shaved
<01494> (8799)

his head
<07218>_,

and fell down
<05307> (8799)

upon the ground
<0776>_,

and worshipped
<07812> (8691)_,

{mantle: or, robe}

1:21

<0559> (8799)_,

Naked
<06174>

came I out
<03318> (8804)

of my mother's
<0517>

womb
<0990>_,

and naked
<06174>

shall I return
<07725> (8799)

thither: the LORD
<03068>

gave
<05414> (8804)_,

and the LORD
<03068>

hath taken away
<03947> (8804)_;

blessed
<01288> (8794)

be the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

1:22

In all this Job
<0347>

sinned
<02398> (8804)

not, nor charged
<05414> (8804)

God
<0430>

foolishly
<08604>_.
