Propăşirea lui Iov
1 Era în ţara(A) Uţ un om care se numea Iov(B). Şi omul acesta era fără prihană(C) şi curat la suflet. El se temea(D) de Dumnezeu şi se abătea de la rău. 2 I s-au născut şapte fii şi trei fete. 3 Avea şapte mii de oi, trei mii de cămile, cinci sute de perechi de boi, cinci sute de măgăriţe şi un foarte mare număr de slujitori. Şi omul acesta era cel mai cu vază dintre toţi locuitorii Răsăritului. 4 Fiii săi se duceau unii la alţii şi dădeau, rând pe rând, câte un ospăţ. Şi pofteau şi pe cele trei surori ale lor să mănânce şi să bea împreună cu ei. 5 Şi, după ce treceau zilele de ospăţ, Iov chema şi sfinţea pe fiii săi: se scula dis-de-dimineaţă şi aducea pentru fiecare din ei câte o ardere-de-tot(E). Căci zicea Iov: „Poate că fiii mei au păcătuit şi au supărat(F) pe Dumnezeu în inima lor.” Aşa avea Iov obicei să facă.
Satana cere să se atingă de Iov
6 Fiii lui Dumnezeu au venit(G) într-o zi(H) de s-au înfăţişat înaintea Domnului. Şi a venit şi Satana în mijlocul lor. 7 Domnul a zis Satanei: „De unde vii?” Şi Satana a răspuns Domnului: „De la cutreierarea(I) pământului şi de la plimbarea pe care am făcut-o pe el.” 8 Domnul a zis Satanei: „Ai văzut(J) pe robul Meu Iov? Nu este nimeni ca el pe pământ. Este un om fără prihană(K) şi curat la suflet, care se teme de Dumnezeu şi se abate de la rău.” 9 Şi Satana a răspuns Domnului: „Oare degeaba se teme Iov de Dumnezeu? 10 Nu l-ai(L) ocrotit Tu pe el, casa lui şi tot ce este al lui? Ai binecuvântat lucrul(M) mâinilor lui şi turmele lui acoperă ţara. 11 Dar ia întinde-Ţi(N) mâna şi atinge-Te de tot ce are, şi sunt încredinţat că Te va blestema(O) în faţă.” 12 Domnul a zis Satanei: „Iată, îţi dau pe mână tot ce are, numai asupra lui să nu întinzi mâna.”
Şi Satana a plecat dinaintea Domnului.
Răbdarea lui Iov
13 Într-o zi, pe când fiii şi fiicele(P) lui Iov mâncau şi beau vin în casa fratelui lor întâi născut, 14 a venit la Iov un sol, care a zis: „Boii arau şi măgăriţele păşteau lângă ei. 15 Şi s-au aruncat nişte sabeeni asupra lor, i-au luat şi au trecut pe slujitori prin ascuţişul sabiei. Numai eu am scăpat, ca să-ţi dau de ştire.” 16 Pe când vorbea el încă, a venit un altul şi a zis: „Focul lui Dumnezeu a căzut din cer şi a aprins oile şi pe slujitorii tăi şi i-a ars de tot. Numai eu am scăpat, ca să-ţi dau de ştire.” 17 Pe când vorbea el încă, a venit un altul şi a zis: „Nişte haldeeni, înşiraţi în trei cete, s-au aruncat asupra cămilelor, le-au luat şi au trecut pe slujitori prin ascuţişul sabiei. Numai eu am scăpat, ca să-ţi dau de ştire.” 18 Pe când vorbea el încă, a venit un altul şi a zis: „Fiii(Q) tăi şi fiicele tale mâncau şi beau vin în casa fratelui lor întâi născut. 19 Şi deodată, a venit un vânt mare de dincolo de pustie şi a izbit în cele patru colţuri ale casei; casa s-a prăbuşit peste tineri şi au murit. Şi am scăpat numai eu, ca să-ţi dau de ştire.” 20 Atunci, Iov s-a sculat, şi-a sfâşiat(R) mantaua şi şi-a tuns capul. Apoi, aruncându-se(S) la pământ, s-a închinat 21 şi a zis: „Gol(T) am ieşit din pântecele mamei mele şi gol mă voi întoarce în sânul pământului. Domnul a dat(U) şi Domnul a luat(V). Binecuvântat(W) fie Numele Domnului!” 22 În toate(X) acestea, Iov n-a păcătuit deloc şi n-a vorbit nimic necuviincios împotriva lui Dumnezeu.

Prologue
1 In the land of Uz(A) there lived a man whose name was Job.(B) This man was blameless(C) and upright;(D) he feared God(E) and shunned evil.(F) 2 He had seven sons(G) and three daughters,(H) 3 and he owned seven thousand sheep, three thousand camels, five hundred yoke of oxen and five hundred donkeys,(I) and had a large number of servants.(J) He was the greatest man(K) among all the people of the East.(L)
4 His sons used to hold feasts(M) 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.(N) Early in the morning he would sacrifice a burnt offering(O) for each of them, thinking, “Perhaps my children have sinned(P) and cursed God(Q) in their hearts.” This was Job’s regular custom.
6 One day the angels[a](R) came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan[b](S) also came with them.(T) 7 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.”(U)
8 Then the Lord said to Satan, “Have you considered my servant Job?(V) There is no one on earth like him; he is blameless and upright, a man who fears God(W) and shuns evil.”(X)
9 “Does Job fear God for nothing?”(Y) Satan replied. 10 “Have you not put a hedge(Z) around him and his household and everything he has?(AA) You have blessed the work of his hands, so that his flocks and herds are spread throughout the land.(AB) 11 But now stretch out your hand and strike everything he has,(AC) and he will surely curse you to your face.”(AD)
12 The Lord said to Satan, “Very well, then, everything he has(AE) is in your power, but on the man himself do not lay a finger.”(AF)
Then Satan went out from the presence of the Lord.
13 One day when Job’s sons and daughters(AG) were feasting(AH) and drinking wine at the oldest brother’s house, 14 a messenger came to Job and said, “The oxen were plowing and the donkeys were grazing(AI) nearby, 15 and the Sabeans(AJ) attacked and made off with them. They put the servants to the sword, and I am the only one who has escaped to tell you!”
16 While he was still speaking, another messenger came and said, “The fire of God fell from the heavens(AK) and burned up the sheep and the servants,(AL) and I am the only one who has escaped to tell you!”
17 While he was still speaking, another messenger came and said, “The Chaldeans(AM) formed three raiding parties and swept down on your camels and made off with them. They put the servants to the sword, and I am the only one who has escaped to tell you!”
18 While he was still speaking, yet another messenger came and said, “Your sons and daughters(AN) were feasting(AO) and drinking wine at the oldest brother’s house, 19 when suddenly a mighty wind(AP) swept in from the desert and struck the four corners of the house. It collapsed on them and they are dead,(AQ) and I am the only one who has escaped to tell you!(AR)”
20 At this, Job got up and tore his robe(AS) and shaved his head.(AT) Then he fell to the ground in worship(AU) 21 and said:
“Naked I came from my mother’s womb,
and naked I will depart.[c](AV)
The Lord gave and the Lord has taken away;(AW)
may the name of the Lord be praised.”(AX)
22 In all this, Job did not sin by charging God with wrongdoing.(AY)

Job's Character and Wealth
1 There was a man in the land of (A)Uz whose name was (B)Job, and that man was (C)blameless and upright, one who (D)feared God and (E)turned away from evil. 2 There were born to him (F)seven sons and three daughters. 3 He possessed 7,000 sheep, 3,000 camels, 500 yoke of oxen, and 500 female donkeys, and very many servants, so that this man was the greatest of all (G)the people of the east. 4 His sons used to go and hold a feast in the house of each one on his day, and they would send and invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them. 5 And when the days of the feast had run their course, Job would send and (H)consecrate them, and he would rise early in the morning and (I)offer burnt offerings according to the number of them all. For Job said, “It may be that my children have sinned, and (J)cursed[a] God in their hearts.” Thus Job did continually.
Satan Allowed to Test Job
6 Now there was a day when (K)the sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord, and (L)Satan[b] also came among them. 7 The Lord said to Satan, “From where have you come?” Satan answered the Lord and said, “From (M)going to and fro on the earth, and from walking up and down on it.” 8 And the Lord said to Satan, “Have you (N)considered my (O)servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, (P)a blameless and upright man, who fears God and turns away from evil?” 9 Then Satan answered the Lord and said, “Does Job fear God for no reason? 10 Have you not put (Q)a hedge around him and his house and all that he has, on every side? You have (R)blessed the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land. 11 But (S)stretch out your hand and (T)touch all that he has, and he will (U)curse you (V)to your face.” 12 And the Lord said to Satan, “Behold, all that he has is in your hand. Only against him do not stretch out your hand.” So Satan went out from the presence of the Lord.
Satan Takes Job's Property and Children
13 Now there was a day when his sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother's house, 14 and there came a messenger to Job and said, “The oxen were plowing and the donkeys feeding beside them, 15 and (W)the Sabeans fell upon them and took them and struck down the servants[c] with the edge of the sword, and I alone have escaped to tell you.” 16 While he was yet speaking, there came another and said, (X)“The fire of God fell from heaven and burned up the sheep and the servants and consumed them, and I alone have escaped to tell you.” 17 While he was yet speaking, there came another and said, (Y)“The Chaldeans formed (Z)three groups and made a raid on the camels and took them and struck down the servants with the edge of the sword, and I alone have escaped to tell you.” 18 While he was yet speaking, there came another and said, (AA)“Your sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother's house, 19 and behold, a great wind came across (AB)the wilderness and struck the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young people, and they are dead, and I alone have escaped to tell you.”
20 Then Job arose and (AC)tore his (AD)robe and (AE)shaved his head (AF)and fell on the ground and worshiped. 21 And he said, (AG)“Naked I came from my mother's womb, and naked shall I (AH)return. The Lord (AI)gave, and the Lord has taken away; (AJ)blessed be the name of the Lord.”
22 (AK)In all this Job did not sin or charge God with (AL)wrong.
