Job 1

1 The holiness, riches, and religious care of Job for his children. 6 Satan, appearing before God, by calumniation obtaineth leave to tempt Job. 13 Understanding of the loss of his goods and children, in his mourning he blesseth God.

 1:1 There was a man 376 in the land 776 of Uz 5780 whose name 8034 was Job 347; and that man 376 was blameless 8535, upright 3477, fearing 3372a God 430 and turning 5493 away 5493 from evil 7451b.

 1:2 Seven 7651 sons 1121 and three 7969 daughters 1323 were born 3205 to him.

 1:3 His possessions 4735 also were 7,000 7651 505 sheep 6629, 3,000 7969 505 camels 1581, 500 2568 3967 yoke 6776 of oxen 1241, 500 2568 3967 female 860 donkeys 860, and very 3966 many 7227a servants 5657; and that man 376 was the greatest 1419 of all 3605 the men 1121 of the east 6924a.

 1:4 His sons 1121 used to go 1980 and hold 6213a a feast 4960 in the house 1004 of each 376 one 376 on his day 3117, and they would send 7971 and invite 7121 their three 7969 sisters 269 to eat 398 and drink 8354 with them.

 1:5 When 3588 the days 3117 of feasting 4960 had completed 5362b their cycle 5362b, Job 347 would send 7971 and consecrate 6942 them, rising 7925 up early 7925 in the morning 1242 and offering 5927 burnt 5930a offerings 5930a [according to] the number 4557 of them all 3605; for Job 347 said 559, “Perhaps 194 my sons 1121 have sinned 2398 and cursed 1288 God 430 in their hearts 3824.” Thus 3602 Job 347 did 6213a continually 3605 3117.

 1:6 ¶ Now there was a day 3117 when the sons 1121 of God 430 came 935 to present 3320 themselves before 5921 the LORD 3068, and Satan 7854 also 1571 came 935 among 8432 them.

 1:7 The LORD 3068 said 559 to Satan 7854, “From where 370 do you come 935?” Then Satan 7854 answered 6030a the LORD 3068 and said 559, “From roaming 7751a about 7751a on the earth 776 and walking 1980 around 1980 on it.”

 1:8 The LORD 3068 said 559 to Satan 7854, “Have you considered 7760 3820 5921 My servant 5650 Job 347? For there 369 is no 369 one 369 like 3644 him on the earth 776, a blameless 8535 and upright 3477 man 376, fearing 3372a God 430 and turning 5493 away 5493 from evil 7451b.”

 1:9 Then Satan 7854 answered 6030a the LORD 3068, “Does Job 347 fear 3372a God 430 for nothing 2600?

 1:10 “Have You not made 7753 a hedge 7753 about 1157 him and his house 1004 and all 3605 that he has, on every 5439 side 5439? You have blessed 1288 the work 4639 of his hands 3027, and his possessions 4735 have increased 6555 in the land 776.

 1:11 “But put 7971 forth 7971 Your hand 3027 now 4994 and touch 5060 all 3605 that he has; he will surely 518 3808 curse 1288 You to Your face 6440.”

 1:12 Then the LORD 3068 said 559 to Satan 7854, “Behold 2009, all 3605 that he has is in your power 3027, only 7534 do not put 7971 forth 7971 your hand 3027 on him.” So Satan 7854 departed 3318 from the presence 6440 of the LORD 3068.

 1:13 ¶ Now on the day 3117 when his sons 1121 and his daughters 1323 were eating 398 and drinking 8354 wine 3196 in their oldest 1060 brother’s 251 house 1004,

 1:14 a messenger 4397 came 935 to Job 347 and said 559, “The oxen 1241 were plowing 2790a and the donkeys 860 feeding 7462a beside 5921 3027 them,

 1:15 and the Sabeans 7614 attacked 5307 and took 3947 them. They also slew 5221 the servants 5288 with the edge 6310 of the sword 2719, and I alone 905 7534 have escaped 4422 to tell 5046 you.”

 1:16 While he was still 5750 speaking 1696, another 2088 also came 935 and said 559, “The fire 784 of God 430 fell 5307 from heaven 8064 and burned 1197a up the sheep 6629 and the servants 5288 and consumed 398 them, and I alone 905 7534 have escaped 4422 to tell 5046 you.”

 1:17 While he was still 5750 speaking 1696, another 2088 also came 935 and said 559, “The Chaldeans 3778 formed 7760 three 7969 bands 7218 and made 7760 a raid 6584 on the camels 1581 and took 3947 them and slew 5221 the servants 5288 with the edge 6310 of the sword 2719, and I alone 905 7534 have escaped 4422 to tell 5046 you.”

 1:18 While he was still speaking 1696, another 2088 also came 935 and said 559, “Your sons 1121 and your daughters 1323 were eating 398 and drinking 8354 wine 3196 in their oldest 1060 brother’s 251 house 1004,

 1:19 and behold 2009, a great 1419 wind 7307 came 935 from across 5676 the wilderness 4057b and struck 5221 the four 702 corners 6438 of the house 1004, and it fell 5307 on the young 5288 people 5288 and they died 4191, and I alone 905 7534 have escaped 4422 to tell 5046 you.”

 1:20 ¶ Then Job 347 arose 6965 and tore 7167 his robe 4598 and shaved 1494 his head 7218, and he fell 5307 to the ground 776 and worshiped 7812.

 1:21 He said 559, “Naked 6174 I came 3318 from my mother’s 517 womb 990, And naked 6174 I shall return 7725 there 8033. The LORD 3068 gave 5414 and the LORD 3068 has taken 3947 away. Blessed 1288 be the name 8034 of the LORD 3068.”

 1:22 ¶ Through all 3605 this 384 Job 347 did not sin 2398 nor 3808 did he blame 5414 8604 God 430.
