Job 2
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
2 And it came to pass, when on a certain day the sons of God came, and stood before the Lord, and Satan came among them, and stood in his sight,
2 That the Lord said to Satan: Whence comest thou? And he answered and said: I have gone round about the earth, and walked through it.
3 And the Lord said to Satan: Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a man simple, and upright, and fearing God, and avoiding evil, and still keeping his innocence? But thou hast moved me against him, that I should afflict him without cause.
4 And Satan answered, and said: Skin for skin, and all that a man hath he will give for his life:
5 But put forth thy hand, and touch his bone and his flesh, and then thou shalt see that he will bless thee to thy face.
6 And the Lord said to Satan: Behold be is in thy hand, but yet save his life.
7 So Satan went forth from the presence Of the Lord, and struck Job with a very grievous ulcer, from the sole of the foot even to the top of his head:
8 And he took a potsherd and scraped the corrupt matter, sitting on a dunghill.
9 And his wife said to him: Dost thou still continue in thy simplicity? bless God and die.
10 And he said to her: Thou hast; spoken like one of the foolish women: if we have received good things at the hand of God, why should we not receive evil? In all these things Job did not sin with his lips.
11 Now when Job's three friends heard all the evil that had befallen him, they came every one from his own place, Alphas the Themanite, and Baldad the Suhite, and Sophar the Naamathite. For they had made an appointment to come together and visit him, and comfort him.
12 And when they had lifted up their eyes afar off, they knew him not, and crying out they wept, and rending their garments they sprinkled dust upon their heads towards heaven.
13 And they sat with him on the ground seven days and seven nights, and no man spoke to him a word: for they saw that his grief was very great.
Job 2
King James Version
2 Again there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan came also among them to present himself before the Lord.
2 And the Lord said unto Satan, From whence comest thou? And Satan answered the Lord, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.
3 And the Lord said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil? and still he holdeth fast his integrity, although thou movedst me against him, to destroy him without cause.
4 And Satan answered the Lord, and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that a man hath will he give for his life.
5 But put forth thine hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will curse thee to thy face.
6 And the Lord said unto Satan, Behold, he is in thine hand; but save his life.
7 So went Satan forth from the presence of the Lord, and smote Job with sore boils from the sole of his foot unto his crown.
8 And he took him a potsherd to scrape himself withal; and he sat down among the ashes.
9 Then said his wife unto him, Dost thou still retain thine integrity? curse God, and die.
10 But he said unto her, Thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh. What? shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this did not Job sin with his lips.
11 Now when Job's three friends heard of all this evil that was come upon him, they came every one from his own place; Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite: for they had made an appointment together to come to mourn with him and to comfort him.
12 And when they lifted up their eyes afar off, and knew him not, they lifted up their voice, and wept; and they rent every one his mantle, and sprinkled dust upon their heads toward heaven.
13 So they sat down with him upon the ground seven days and seven nights, and none spake a word unto him: for they saw that his grief was very great.
Job 2
Ang Salita ng Dios (Tagalog Contemporary Bible)
Ang Pangalawang Pagsubok kay Job
2 Isang araw, muling nagtipon ang mga anghel[a] sa presensya ng Panginoon, at muli ring sumali sa kanila si Satanas. 2 Sinabi ng Panginoon kay Satanas, “Saan ka nanggaling?” Sumagot si Satanas, “Parooʼt parito na naglilibot sa mundo.” 3 Sinabi sa kanya ng Panginoon, “Napansin mo ba ang aking lingkod na si Job? Wala siyang katulad sa buong mundo. Matuwid siya, malinis ang pamumuhay, may takot sa akin at umiiwas sa kasamaan. Tapat pa rin siya sa akin, kahit na pinilit mo akong payagan ka na sirain siya ng walang dahilan.” 4 Sinabi ni Satanas, “Matatanggap ng tao na mawala ang lahat sa kanya bastaʼt buhay lang siya. 5 Pero kapag siya na ang sinaktan mo, tiyak na isusumpa ka niya.” 6 Sinabi ng Panginoon kay Satanas, “O sige, gawin mo ang gusto mong gawin sa kanya, pero huwag mo siyang papatayin.” 7 Kaya umalis si Satanas sa presensya ng Panginoon, at sinaktan si Job sa pamamagitan ng mga pigsa mula ulo hanggang talampakan. 8 Kumuha si Job ng basag na palayok at ginamit na pangkayod sa kanyang mga sugat habang nakaupo sa abo. 9 Sinabi sa kanya ng asawa niya, “Ano, tapat ka pa rin ba sa iyong Dios? Sumpain mo na siya at nang mamatay ka na!”
10 Sumagot si Job, “Nagsasalita ka ng walang kabuluhan. Mabubuting bagay lang ba ang tatanggapin natin mula sa Dios at hindi ang masasama?” Sa kabila ng lahat ng nangyari kay Job ay hindi siya nagkasala kahit sa pananalita.
Ang Tatlong Kaibigan ni Job
11 Tatlo sa kaibigan ni Job ang nakabalita tungkol sa masamang nangyari sa kanya. Itoʼy sina Elifaz na taga-Teman, si Bildad na taga-Shua, at si Zofar na taga-Naama. Nagkasundo silang dalawin si Job para makiramay at aliwin. 12 Malayu-layo pa sila, nakita na nila si Job, pero halos hindi na nila ito makilala. Kaya napaiyak sila nang malakas. Pinunit nila ang kanilang mga damit at naglagay ng alikabok sa kanilang ulo bilang pagpapakita ng pagdadalamhati. 13 Pagkatapos, umupo sila sa lupa kasama ni Job sa loob ng pitong araw at pitong gabi. Hindi sila nagsalita dahil nakita nila ang labis na paghihirap na dinaranas ni Job.
