There was a manH376 in the landH776 of UzH5780, whose nameH8034 was JobH347; and that manH376 was perfectH8535 and uprightH3477, and one that fearedH3373 GodH430, and eschewedH5493 evilH7451.
And there were bornH3205 unto him sevenH7651 sonsH1121 and threeH7969 daughtersH1323.
His substanceH4735 also was sevenH7651 thousandH505 sheepH6629, and threeH7969 thousandH505 camelsH1581, and fiveH2568 hundredH3967 yokeH6776 of oxenH1241, and fiveH2568 hundredH3967 she assesH860, and a veryH3966 greatH7227 householdH5657; so that this manH376 was the greatestH1419 of all the menH1121 of the eastH6924. {substance: or, cattle} {household: or, husbandry} {men: Heb. sons}
And his sonsH1121 wentH1980 and feastedH4960+H6213 in their housesH1004, every oneH376 his dayH3117; and sentH7971 and calledH7121 for their threeH7969 sistersH269 to eatH398 and to drinkH8354 with them.
And it was so, when the daysH3117 of their feastingH4960 were gone aboutH5362, that JobH347 sentH7971 and sanctifiedH6942 them, and rose up earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, and offeredH5927 burnt offeringsH5930 according to the numberH4557 of them all: for JobH347 saidH559, It may beH194 that my sonsH1121 have sinnedH2398, and cursedH1288 GodH430 in their heartsH3824. Thus didH6213 JobH347 continuallyH3117. {continually: Heb. all the days}
Now there was a dayH3117 when the sonsH1121 of GodH430 cameH935 to presentH3320 themselves before the LORDH3068, and SatanH7854 cameH935 also amongH8432 them. {Satan: Heb. the adversary} {among: Heb. in the midst of}
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto SatanH7854, WhenceH370 comestH935 thou? Then SatanH7854 answeredH6030 the LORDH3068, and saidH559, From going to and froH7751 in the earthH776, and from walking up and downH1980 in it.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto SatanH7854, Hast thou consideredH7760+H3820 my servantH5650 JobH347, that there is none like him in the earthH776, a perfectH8535 and an uprightH3477 manH376, one that fearethH3373 GodH430, and eschewethH5493 evilH7451? {considered: Heb. set thy heart on}
Then SatanH7854 answeredH6030 the LORDH3068, and saidH559, Doth JobH347 fearH3372 GodH430 for noughtH2600?
Hast not thou made an hedgeH7753 about him, and aboutH1157 his houseH1004, and about all that he hath on every sideH5439? thou hast blessedH1288 the workH4639 of his handsH3027, and his substanceH4735 is increasedH6555 in the landH776. {substance: or, cattle}
ButH199 put forthH7971 thine handH3027 now, and touchH5060 all that he hath, and he will curseH1288+H3808 thee to thy faceH6440. {and he…: Heb. if he curse thee not to thy face}
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto SatanH7854, Behold, all that he hath is in thy powerH3027; only upon himself put not forthH7971 thine handH3027. So SatanH7854 went forthH3318 from the presenceH6440 of the LORDH3068. {power: Heb. hand}
And there was a dayH3117 when his sonsH1121 and his daughtersH1323 were eatingH398 and drinkingH8354 wineH3196 in their eldestH1060 brother'sH251 houseH1004:
And there cameH935 a messengerH4397 unto JobH347, and saidH559, The oxenH1241 were plowingH2790, and the assesH860 feedingH7462 besideH3027 them:
And the SabeansH7614 fellH5307 upon them, and took them awayH3947; yea, they have slainH5221 the servantsH5288 with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719; and I only am escapedH4422 alone to tellH5046 thee.
While he was yet speakingH1696, there cameH935 also another, and saidH559, The fireH784 of GodH430 is fallenH5307 from heavenH8064, and hath burned upH1197 the sheepH6629, and the servantsH5288, and consumedH398 them; and I only am escapedH4422 alone to tellH5046 thee. {The fire…: or, A great fire}
While he was yet speakingH1696, there cameH935 also another, and saidH559, The ChaldeansH3778 made outH7760 threeH7969 bandsH7218, and fellH6584 upon the camelsH1581, and have carried them awayH3947, yea, and slainH5221 the servantsH5288 with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719; and I only am escapedH4422 alone to tellH5046 thee. {fell: Heb. rushed}
While he was yet speakingH1696, there cameH935 also another, and saidH559, Thy sonsH1121 and thy daughtersH1323 were eatingH398 and drinkingH8354 wineH3196 in their eldestH1060 brother'sH251 houseH1004:
And, behold, there cameH935 a greatH1419 windH7307 fromH5676 the wildernessH4057, and smoteH5060 the fourH702 cornersH6438 of the houseH1004, and it fellH5307 upon the young menH5288, and they are deadH4191; and I only am escapedH4422 alone to tellH5046 thee. {from…: Heb. from aside, etc}
Then JobH347 aroseH6965, and rentH7167 his mantleH4598, and shavedH1494 his headH7218, and fell downH5307 upon the groundH776, and worshippedH7812, {mantle: or, robe}
And saidH559, NakedH6174 came I outH3318 of my mother'sH517 wombH990, and nakedH6174 shall I returnH7725 thither: the LORDH3068 gaveH5414, and the LORDH3068 hath taken awayH3947; blessedH1288 be the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068.
In all this JobH347 sinnedH2398 not, nor chargedH5414 GodH430 foolishlyH8604. {charged…: or, attributed folly to God}

And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto SatanH7854, Hast thouH7760 consideredH3820 my servantH5650 JobH347, that there is none like him in the earthH776, a perfectH8535 and an uprightH3477 manH376, one that fearethH3373 GodH430, and eschewethH5493 evilH7451? and still he holdeth fastH2388 his integrityH8538, although thou movedstH5496 me against him, to destroyH1104 him without causeH2600. {to destroy…: Heb. to swallow him up}
