Job 1:3-5
Common English Bible
3 and owned seven thousand sheep, three thousand camels, five hundred pairs of oxen, five hundred female donkeys, and a vast number of servants, so that he was greater than all the people of the east. 4 Each of his sons hosted a feast in his own house on his birthday. They invited their three sisters to eat and drink with them. 5 When the days of the feast had been completed, Job would send word[a] and purify his children.[b] Getting up early in the morning, he prepared entirely burned offerings for each one of them, for Job thought, Perhaps my children have sinned and then cursed[c] God in their hearts. Job did this regularly.

Job 1:3-5
New International Version
3 and he owned seven thousand sheep, three thousand camels, five hundred yoke of oxen and five hundred donkeys,(A) and had a large number of servants.(B) He was the greatest man(C) among all the people of the East.(D)
4 His sons used to hold feasts(E) in their homes on their birthdays, and they would invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them. 5 When a period of feasting had run its course, Job would make arrangements for them to be purified.(F) Early in the morning he would sacrifice a burnt offering(G) for each of them, thinking, “Perhaps my children have sinned(H) and cursed God(I) in their hearts.” This was Job’s regular custom.
