said°°
unto°
Ŝäţän
שָׂטָן,°
Hast thou°°
considered°°°
my servant°

[there is] none°
like him°
in the earth,°
a perfect°
and an upright°
man,°
one that feareth°
´Élöhîm

evil?°°
and still°
he holdeth fast°°
his integrity,°
although thou movedst°°
me against him, to destroy°°
him without cause.° |

hath will he give°°
for°
his life.° |

as one°

speaketh.°°
What?°
shall we receive°°°
good°
at the hand°°
of
´Élöhîm

sin°°
with his lips.° |
|

´Iyyôv's
אִיּוֹב°
three°
friends°
heard°°°
of all°
this°
evil°
that was come°°
upon°
him, they came°°
every one°
from his own place;°°
´Élîfäz
אֱלִיפָז°
the
Têmänî
תֵּימָנִי,°
and
Bildađ
בִּלדַּד°
the
Šûçî
שׁוּחִי,°
and
Xôfar
צוֹפַר°
the
Na`ámäŧî
נַעֲמָתִי:°
for they had made an appointment°°
together°
to come°°
to mourn°°
with him and to comfort°°
him. |
|
2:11 ¶
Now when Iyyov's three friends heard of all this evil that was come upon him, they came every one from his own place; Elifaz the Temani, and Bildad the Shuchi, and Tzofar the Naamathi: for they had made an appointment together to come to mourn with him and to comfort him. |
2:12
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.° |

2:13
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.°°° |
