Job pierde su salud
2 (A)Y sucedió que un día cuando los hijos de Dios vinieron a presentarse delante del Señor, vino también Satanás[a] entre ellos para presentarse delante del Señor. 2 Y el Señor dijo a Satanás: ¿De dónde vienes? Entonces Satanás respondió al Señor, y dijo: De recorrer la tierra y de andar por ella. 3 Y el Señor dijo a Satanás: ¿Te has fijado[b] en mi siervo Job? Porque no hay otro como él sobre la tierra, hombre intachable[c], recto, temeroso de[d] Dios y apartado del mal. Y él todavía conserva su integridad(B), aunque tú me incitaste contra él para que lo arruinara[e] sin causa. 4 Respondió Satanás al Señor, y dijo: ¡Piel por piel! Sí, todo lo que el hombre tiene dará por su vida. 5 Sin embargo, extiende ahora tu mano(C) y toca su hueso y su carne, verás si no te maldice en tu misma cara(D). 6 Y el Señor dijo a Satanás: He aquí, él está en tu mano; pero guarda su vida.
7 Satanás salió de la presencia del Señor, e hirió a Job con llagas malignas[f] desde la planta del pie hasta la coronilla(E). 8 Y Job tomó un tiesto para rascarse mientras estaba sentado entre las cenizas(F). 9 Entonces su mujer le dijo: ¿Aún conservas tu integridad? Maldice a Dios y muérete. 10 Pero él le dijo: Como habla cualquier mujer necia, has hablado. ¿Aceptaremos el bien de Dios y no aceptaremos el mal(G)? En todo esto Job no pecó con sus labios(H).
11 Cuando tres amigos de Job, Elifaz temanita(I), Bildad suhita(J) y Zofar naamatita, oyeron de todo este mal que había venido sobre él, vinieron cada uno de su lugar, pues se habían puesto de acuerdo para ir juntos a condolerse de él y a consolarlo(K). 12 Y cuando alzaron los ojos desde lejos y no lo reconocieron, levantaron sus voces y lloraron. Cada uno de ellos rasgó su manto(L) y esparcieron polvo(M) hacia el cielo sobre sus cabezas. 13 Entonces se sentaron en el suelo con él por siete días(N) y siete noches sin que nadie le dijera una palabra, porque veían que su dolor era muy grande.

Chapter 2
The Second Interview. 1 One day, when the sons of God(A) came to present themselves before the Lord, the satan also came with them. 2 The Lord said to the satan, “Where have you been?” Then the satan answered the Lord and said, “Roaming the earth and patrolling it.” 3 The Lord said to the satan, “Have you noticed my servant Job? There is no one on earth like him, blameless and upright, fearing God and avoiding evil.(B) He still holds fast to his innocence although you incited me against him to ruin him for nothing.” 4 The satan answered the Lord and said, “Skin for skin![a] All that a man has he will give for his life. 5 (C)But put forth your hand and touch his bone and his flesh. Then surely he will curse you to your face.” 6 And the Lord said to the satan, “He is in your power; only spare his life.”
The Second Trial. 7 So the satan went forth from the presence of the Lord and struck Job with severe boils from the soles of his feet to the crown of his head.
Job’s Reaction. 8 He took a potsherd to scrape himself, as he sat among the ashes. 9 Then his wife said to him,(D) “Are you still holding to your innocence? Curse God and die!”[b] 10 But he said to her, “You speak as foolish women do. We accept good things from God; should we not accept evil?” Through all this, Job did not sin in what he said.(E)
Job’s Three Friends. 11 Now when three of Job’s friends heard of all the misfortune that had come upon him, they set out each one from his own place: Eliphaz from Teman,[c] Bildad from Shuh, and Zophar from Naamath. They met and journeyed together to give him sympathy and comfort. 12 But when, at a distance, they lifted up their eyes and did not recognize him, they began to weep aloud; they tore their cloaks and threw dust into the air over their heads. 13 Then they sat down upon the ground with him seven days and seven nights, but none of them spoke a word to him; for they saw how great was his suffering.
Footnotes
- 2:4 Skin for skin: a proverbial expression derived perhaps from bartering; the precise meaning is unclear.
- 2:9 Curse God and die: the presupposition is that such blasphemy would be met with immediate death.
- 2:11 Teman: in Edom (see Gn 36:9–11). The Temanites (Jer 49:7; cf. Ob 8) enjoyed a reputation for wisdom. Shuh and Naamath: locations unknown.

2 On another day the angels[a](A) came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan also came with them(B) to present himself before him. 2 And the Lord said to Satan, “Where have you come from?”
Satan answered the Lord, “From roaming throughout the earth, going back and forth on it.”(C)
3 Then the Lord said to Satan, “Have you considered my servant Job? There is no one on earth like him; he is blameless and upright, a man who fears God and shuns evil.(D) And he still maintains his integrity,(E) though you incited me against him to ruin him without any reason.”(F)
4 “Skin for skin!” Satan replied. “A man will give all he has(G) for his own life. 5 But now stretch out your hand and strike his flesh and bones,(H) and he will surely curse you to your face.”(I)
6 The Lord said to Satan, “Very well, then, he is in your hands;(J) but you must spare his life.”(K)
7 So Satan went out from the presence of the Lord and afflicted Job with painful sores from the soles of his feet to the crown of his head.(L) 8 Then Job took a piece of broken pottery and scraped himself with it as he sat among the ashes.(M)
9 His wife said to him, “Are you still maintaining your integrity?(N) Curse God and die!”(O)
10 He replied, “You are talking like a foolish[b] woman. Shall we accept good from God, and not trouble?”(P)
In all this, Job did not sin in what he said.(Q)
11 When Job’s three friends, Eliphaz the Temanite,(R) Bildad the Shuhite(S) and Zophar the Naamathite,(T) heard about all the troubles that had come upon him, they set out from their homes and met together by agreement to go and sympathize with him and comfort him.(U) 12 When they saw him from a distance, they could hardly recognize him;(V) they began to weep aloud,(W) and they tore their robes(X) and sprinkled dust on their heads.(Y) 13 Then they sat on the ground(Z) with him for seven days and seven nights.(AA) No one said a word to him,(AB) because they saw how great his suffering was.
