| 2:1 | Again there was a day <03117> when the sons <01121> of God <0430> came <0935> (8799) to present <03320> (8692) themselves before the LORD <03068>, and Satan <07854> came <0935> (8799) also among <08432> them to present <03320> (8692) himself before the LORD <03068>. |
| 2:2 | And the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8799) unto Satan <07854>, From whence <0335> comest <0935> (8799) thou? And Satan <07854> answered <06030> (8799) the LORD <03068>, and said <0559> (8799), From going to and fro <07751> (8800) in the earth <0776>, and from walking up and down <01980> (8692) in it. |
| 2:3 | And the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8799) unto Satan <07854>, Hast thou <07760> (8804) considered <03820> my servant <05650> Job <0347>, that [there is] none like him in the earth <0776>, a perfect <08535> and an upright <03477> man <0376>, one that feareth <03373> God <0430>, and escheweth <05493> (8802) evil <07451>? and still he holdeth fast <02388> (8688) his integrity <08538>, although thou movedst <05496> (8686) me against him, to destroy <01104> (8763) him without cause <02600>. {to destroy...: Heb. to swallow him up} |
| 2:4 | And Satan <07854> answered <06030> (8799) the LORD <03068>, and said <0559> (8799), Skin <05785> for skin <05785>, yea, all that a man <0376> hath will he give <05414> (8799) for his life <05315>. |
| 2:5 | But <0199> put forth <07971> (8798) thine hand <03027> now, and touch <05060> (8798) his bone <06106> and his flesh <01320>, and he will curse <01288> (8762) thee to thy face <06440>. |
| 2:6 | And the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8799) unto Satan <07854>, Behold, he [is] in thine hand <03027>; but save <08104> (8798) his life <05315>. {but: or, only} |
| 2:7 | So went <03318> (0) Satan <07854> forth <03318> (8799) from the presence <06440> of the LORD <03068>, and smote <05221> (8686) Job <0347> with sore <07451> boils <07822> from the sole <03709> of his foot <07272> unto his crown <06936>. |
| 2:8 | And he took <03947> (8799) him a potsherd <02789> to scrape <01623> (8692) himself withal; and he sat down <03427> (8802) among <08432> the ashes <0665>. |
| 2:9 | Then said <0559> (8799) his wife <0802> unto him, Dost thou still retain <02388> (8688) thine integrity <08538>? curse <01288> (8761) God <0430>, and die <04191> (8798). |
| 2:10 | But he said <0559> (8799) unto her, Thou speakest <01696> (8762) as one <0259> of the foolish women <05036> speaketh <01696> (8763). What <01571>? shall we receive <06901> (8762) good <02896> at the hand of God <0430>, and shall we not receive <06901> (8762) evil <07451>? In all this did not Job <0347> sin <02398> (8804) with his lips <08193>. |
| 2:11 | Now when Job's <0347> three <07969> friends <07453> heard <08085> (8799) of all this evil <07451> that was come <0935> (8802) upon him, they came <0935> (8799) every one <0376> from his own place <04725>; Eliphaz <0464> the Temanite <08489>, and Bildad <01085> the Shuhite <07747>, and Zophar <06691> the Naamathite <05284>: for they had made an appointment <03259> (8735) together <03162> to come <0935> (8800) to mourn <05110> (8800) with him and to comfort <05162> (8763) him. |
| 2:12 | And when they lifted up <05375> (8799) their eyes <05869> afar off <07350>, and knew <05234> (8689) him not, they lifted up <05375> (8799) their voice <06963>, and wept <01058> (8799); and they rent <07167> (8799) every one <0376> his mantle <04598>, and sprinkled <02236> (8799) dust <06083> upon their heads <07218> toward heaven <08064>. |
| 2:13 | So they sat down <03427> (8799) with him upon the ground <0776> seven <07651> days <03117> and seven <07651> nights <03915>, and none spake <01696> (8802) a word <01697> unto him: for they saw <07200> (8804) that [his] grief <03511> was very <03966> great <01431> (8804). |
