His substance also was seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she asses, and a very great household; so that this man was the greatest of all the men of the east.

And it was so, when the days of their feasting were gone about, that Job sent and sanctified them, and rose up early in the morning, and offered burnt offerings according to the number of them all: for Job said, It may be that my sons have sinned, and cursed God in their hearts. Thus did Job continually.

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.

But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will curse thee to thy face.

And the Lord said unto Satan, Behold, all that he hath is in thy power; only upon himself put not forth thine hand. So Satan went forth from the presence of the Lord.

In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly.

And Satan answered the Lord, and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that a man hath will he give for his life.

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.

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.

Fear came upon me, and trembling, which made all my bones to shake.

So are the paths of all that forget God; and the hypocrite's hope shall perish:

I am afraid of all my sorrows, I know that thou wilt not hold me innocent.

Who knoweth not in all these that the hand of the Lord hath wrought this?

In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind.

Lo, mine eye hath seen all this, mine ear hath heard and understood it.

But ye are forgers of lies, ye are all physicians of no value.

Thou puttest my feet also in the stocks, and lookest narrowly unto all my paths; thou settest a print upon the heels of my feet.

If a man die, shall he live again? all the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come.

The wicked man travaileth with pain all his days, and the number of years is hidden to the oppressor.

I have heard many such things: miserable comforters are ye all.

But now he hath made me weary: thou hast made desolate all my company.

Mine eye also is dim by reason of sorrow, and all my members are as a shadow.

But as for you all, do ye return, and come now: for I cannot find one wise man among you.

All my inward friends abhorred me: and they whom I loved are turned against me.

All darkness shall be hid in his secret places: a fire not blown shall consume him; it shall go ill with him that is left in his tabernacle.
