<p class="poetry">Is not your piety<n id="1" /> your confidence,<n id="2" />p> <p class="poetry">and your blameless ways your hope?<n id="3" />p>

<t /><n id="2" /><p class="bodytext">There was a man<n id="3" /> in the land of Uz<n id="4" /> whose<n id="5" /> name was Job.<n id="6" /> And that man was pure<n id="7" /> and upright,<n id="8" /> one who feared God and turned away from evil.<n id="9" />

So the <sc>Lordsc> said to Satan, &#8220;Have you considered<n id="1" /> my servant Job? There<n id="2" /> is no one like him on the earth, a pure and upright man, one who fears God and turns away<n id="3" /> from evil.&#8221;p>

Then the <sc>Lordsc> said to Satan, &#8220;Have you considered my servant Job? For there is no one like him on the earth, a pure and upright man, one who fears God and turns away from evil. And he still holds firmly<n id="1" /> to his integrity,<n id="2" /> so that<n id="3" /> you stirred me up to destroy him<n id="4" /> without reason.&#8221;<n id="5" />p>
