Job 2:2-13

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Satan
<07854>_,

From whence
<0335>

comest
<0935> (8799)

thou? And Satan
<07854>

answered
<06030> (8799)

the LORD
<03068>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

From going to and fro
<07751> (8800)

in the earth
<0776>_,

and from walking up and down
<01980> (8692)

in it.

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Satan
<07854>_,

Hast thou
<07760> (8804)

considered
<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>_?

and still he holdeth fast
<02388> (8688)

his integrity
<08538>_,

although thou movedst
<05496> (8686)

me against him, to destroy
<01104> (8763)

him without cause
<02600>_.

{to destroy...: Heb. to swallow him up}

And Satan
<07854>

answered
<06030> (8799)

the LORD
<03068>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Skin
<05785>

for skin
<05785>_,

yea, all that a man
<0376>

hath will he give
<05414> (8799)

for his life
<05315>_.

But
<0199>

put forth
<07971> (8798)

thine hand
<03027>

now, and touch
<05060> (8798)

his bone
<06106>

and his flesh
<01320>_,

and he will curse
<01288> (8762)

thee to thy face
<06440>_.

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Satan
<07854>_,

Behold, he [is] in thine hand
<03027>_;

but save
<08104> (8798)

his life
<05315>_.

{but: or, only}

So went
<03318> (0)

Satan
<07854>

forth
<03318> (8799)

from the presence
<06440>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and smote
<05221> (8686)

Job
<0347>

with sore
<07451>

boils
<07822>

from the sole
<03709>

of his foot
<07272>

unto his crown
<06936>_.

And he took
<03947> (8799)

him a potsherd
<02789>

to scrape
<01623> (8692)

himself withal; and he sat down
<03427> (8802)

among
<08432>

the ashes
<0665>_.

Then said
<0559> (8799)

his wife
<0802>

unto him, Dost thou still retain
<02388> (8688)

thine integrity
<08538>_?

curse
<01288> (8761)

God
<0430>_,

and die
<04191> (8798)_.

But he said
<0559> (8799)

unto her, Thou speakest
<01696> (8762)

as one
<0259>

of the foolish women
<05036>

speaketh
<01696> (8763)_.

What
<01571>_?

shall we receive
<06901> (8762)

good
<02896>

at the hand of God
<0430>_,

and shall we not receive
<06901> (8762)

evil
<07451>_?

In all this did not Job
<0347>

sin
<02398> (8804)

with his lips
<08193>_.

Now when Job's
<0347>

three
<07969>

friends
<07453>

heard
<08085> (8799)

of all this evil
<07451>

that was come
<0935> (8802)

upon him, they came
<0935> (8799)

every one
<0376>

from his own place
<04725>_;

Eliphaz
<0464>

the Temanite
<08489>_,

and Bildad
<01085>

the Shuhite
<07747>_,

and Zophar
<06691>

the Naamathite
<05284>_:

for they had made an appointment
<03259> (8735)

together
<03162>

to come
<0935> (8800)

to mourn
<05110> (8800)

with him and to comfort
<05162> (8763)

him.

And when they lifted up
<05375> (8799)

their eyes
<05869>

afar off
<07350>_,

and knew
<05234> (8689)

him not, they lifted up
<05375> (8799)

their voice
<06963>_,

and wept
<01058> (8799)_;

and they rent
<07167> (8799)

every one
<0376>

his mantle
<04598>_,

and sprinkled
<02236> (8799)

dust
<06083>

upon their heads
<07218>

toward heaven
<08064>_.

So they sat down
<03427> (8799)

with him upon the ground
<0776>

seven
<07651>

days
<03117>

and seven
<07651>

nights
<03915>_,

and none spake
<01696> (8802)

a word
<01697>

unto him: for they saw
<07200> (8804)

that [his] grief
<03511>

was very
<03966>

great
<01431> (8804)_.
