Job 1:9-12
New King James Version
9 So Satan answered the Lord and said, “Does Job fear God for nothing? 10 (A)Have You not [a]made a hedge around him, around his household, and around all that he has on every side? (B)You have blessed the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land. 11 (C)But now, stretch out Your hand and touch all that he has, and he will surely (D)curse[b] You to Your face!”
12 And the Lord said to Satan, “Behold, all that he has is in your [c]power; only do not lay a hand on his person.”
So Satan went out from the presence of the Lord.

New Living Translation
9 Satan replied to the Lord, “Yes, but Job has good reason to fear God. 10 You have always put a wall of protection around him and his home and his property. You have made him prosper in everything he does. Look how rich he is! 11 But reach out and take away everything he has, and he will surely curse you to your face!”
12 “All right, you may test him,” the Lord said to Satan. “Do whatever you want with everything he possesses, but don’t harm him physically.” So Satan left the Lord’s presence.

King James Version
9 Then Satan answered the Lord, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought?
10 Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.
11 But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will curse thee to thy face.
