Job

Chapter 1

1 There was1961 a man376 in the land776 of Uz,5780 whose name8034 was Job;347 and that1931 man376 was1961 perfect8535 and upright,3477 and one that feared3373 God,430 and eschewed5493 evil.4480 7451

2 And there were born3205 unto him seven7651 sons1121 and three7969 daughters.1323

3 His substance4735 also was1961 seven7651 thousand505 sheep,6629 and three7969 thousand505 camels,1581 and five2568 hundred3967 yoke6776 of oxen,1241 and five2568 hundred3967 she asses,860 and a very3966 great7227 household;5657 so that this1931 man376 was1961 the greatest1419 of all4480 3605 the men1121 of the east.6924

4 And his sons1121 went1980 and feasted6213 4960 in their houses,1004 every one376 his day;3117 and sent7971 and called7121 for their three7969 sisters269 to eat398 and to drink8354 with5973 them.

5 And it was1961 so, when3588 the days3117 of their feasting4960 were gone about,5362 that Job347 sent7971 and sanctified6942 them, and rose up early7925 in the morning,1242 and offered5927 burnt offerings5930 according to the number4557 of them all:3605 for3588 Job347 said,559 It may be194 that my sons1121 have sinned,2398 and cursed1288 God430 in their hearts.3824 Thus3602 did6213 Job347 continually.3605 3117

6 Now there was1961 a day3117 when the sons1121 of God430 came935 to present themselves3320 before5921 the LORD,3068 and Satan7854 came935 also1571 among8432 them.

7 And the LORD3068 said559 unto413 Satan,7854 Whence4480 370 comest935 thou? Then Satan7854 answered6030 853 the LORD,3068 and said,559 From going to and fro4480 7751 in the earth,776 and from walking up and down4480 1980 in it.

8 And the LORD3068 said559 unto413 Satan,7854 Hast thou considered7760 3820 5921 my servant5650 Job,347 that3588 there is none369 like him3644 in the earth,776 a perfect8535 and an upright3477 man,376 one that feareth3373 God,430 and escheweth5493 evil?4480 7451

9 Then Satan7854 answered6030 853 the LORD,3068 and said,559 Doth Job347 fear3372 God430 for naught?2600

10 Hast not3808 thou859 made a hedge7753 about1157 him, and about1157 his house,1004 and about1157 all3605 that834 he hath on every side?4480 5439 thou hast blessed1288 the work4639 of his hands,3027 and his substance4735 is increased6555 in the land.776

11 But199 put forth7971 thine hand3027 now,4994 and touch5060 all3605 that834 he hath, and518 he will curse1288 thee to5921 thy face.6440

12 And the LORD3068 said559 unto413 Satan,7854 Behold,2009 all3605 that834 he hath is in thy power;3027 only7535 upon413 himself put not forth408 7971 thine hand.3027 So Satan7854 went forth3318 from4480 5973 the presence6440 of the LORD.3068

13 And there was1961 a day3117 when his sons1121 and his daughters1323 were eating398 and drinking8354 wine3196 in their eldest1060 brother's251 house: 1004

14 And there came935 a messenger4397 unto413 Job,347 and said,559 The oxen1241 were1961 plowing,2790 and the asses860 feeding7462 beside5921 3027 them:

15 And the Sabeans7614 fell5307 upon them, and took them away;3947 yea, they have slain5221 the servants5288 with the edge6310 of the sword;2719 and I589 only7535 am escaped4422 alone905 to tell5046 thee.

16 While he2088 was yet5750 speaking,1696 there came935 also another,2088 and said,559 The fire784 of God430 is fallen5307 from4480 heaven,8064 and hath burned up1197 the sheep,6629 and the servants,5288 and consumed398 them; and I589 only7535 am escaped4422 alone905 to tell5046 thee.

17 While he2088 was yet5750 speaking,1696 there came935 also another,2088 and said,559 The Chaldeans3778 made7760 out three7969 bands,7218 and fell6584 upon5921 the camels,1581 and have carried them away,3947 yea, and slain5221 the servants5288 with the edge6310 of the sword;2719 and I589 only7535 am escaped4422 alone905 to tell5046 thee.

18 While he2088 was yet5750 speaking,1696 there came935 also another,2088 and said,559 Thy sons1121 and thy daughters1323 were eating398 and drinking8354 wine3196 in their eldest1060 brother's251 house: 1004

19 And, behold,2009 there came935 a great1419 wind7307 from4480 5676 the wilderness,4057 and smote5060 the four702 corners6438 of the house,1004 and it fell5307 upon5921 the young men,5288 and they are dead;4191 and I589 only7535 am escaped4422 alone905 to tell5046 thee.

20 Then Job347 arose,6965 and rent7167 853 his mantle,4598 and shaved1494 853 his head,7218 and fell down5307 upon the ground,776 and worshiped,7812

21 And said,559 Naked6174 came I out3318 of my mother's womb,4480 990 517 and naked6174 shall I return7725 thither:8033 the LORD3068 gave,5414 and the LORD3068 hath taken away;3947 blessed1288 be1961 the name8034 of the LORD.3068

22 In all3605 this2063 Job347 sinned2398 not,3808 nor3808 charged5414 God430 foolishly.8604

Job

Chapter 1

1 THERE was a man in the land of Uz whose name was Job; and that man was innocent and upright, and one who revered God and turned away from evil.

2 And there were born to him seven sons and three daughters.

3 His substance 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.

4 And his sons went and feasted in the house of each other on his appointed day; and they would send and invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them.

5 And it was so, when the days of their feasting were over, 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.

6 Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present them selves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them.

7 And the LORD said to Satan, Whence have you come? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking on it.

8 Then the LORD said to Satan, Have you considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, an innocent and upright man, one who reveres God, and turns away from evil?

9 Then Satan answered the LORD and said, Does Job revere God for nought?

10 Thou hast rested thy hand of protection upon him and upon his house and upon his children and upon everything that he has everywhere; thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.

11 But put forth thy hand now, and destroy all that he has, and he will curse thee to thy face.

12 And the LORD said to Satan, Behold, all that he has is in your power; only upon himself you shall not put forth your hand. So Satan went out from the presence of the LORD.

13 And there was a day when Job's sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother's house;

14 And there came a messenger to Job, and said to him, The oxen were plowing, and the asses feeding be side them;

15 And robbers raided them, and carried them away, and they have slain the servants with the edge of the sword, and I only have escaped to en_lbp_inform you.

16 While he was yet speaking, there came another, and said to him, The fire of God is fallen from heaven, and has burned up the sheep and the shepherds, and consumed them; and I only have escaped to en_lbp_inform you.

17 While he was yet speaking, there came another, and said to him, The Chaldeans divided themselves into three bands, and raided the camels, and carried them away, and slew the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only have escaped to en_lbp_inform you.

18 While he was yet speaking, there came another, and said to him, Your sons and your daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother's house;

19 And, behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and smote the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they are dead; and I only have escaped to en_lbp_inform you.

20 Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped,

21 And he said, Naked I came out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return; the LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD.

22 In all these disasters, Job did not sin, nor did he blaspheme against the LORD.

1 There was1961 a man376 in the land776 of Uz,5780 whose name8034 was Job;347 and that1931 man376 was1961 perfect8535 and upright,3477 and one that feared3373 God,430 and eschewed5493 evil.4480 7451

1 THERE was a man in the land of Uz whose name was Job; and that man was innocent and upright, and one who revered God and turned away from evil.

2 And there were born3205 unto him seven7651 sons1121 and three7969 daughters.1323

2 And there were born to him seven sons and three daughters.

3 His substance4735 also was1961 seven7651 thousand505 sheep,6629 and three7969 thousand505 camels,1581 and five2568 hundred3967 yoke6776 of oxen,1241 and five2568 hundred3967 she asses,860 and a very3966 great7227 household;5657 so that this1931 man376 was1961 the greatest1419 of all4480 3605 the men1121 of the east.6924

3 His substance 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.

4 And his sons1121 went1980 and feasted6213 4960 in their houses,1004 every one376 his day;3117 and sent7971 and called7121 for their three7969 sisters269 to eat398 and to drink8354 with5973 them.

4 And his sons went and feasted in the house of each other on his appointed day; and they would send and invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them.

5 And it was1961 so, when3588 the days3117 of their feasting4960 were gone about,5362 that Job347 sent7971 and sanctified6942 them, and rose up early7925 in the morning,1242 and offered5927 burnt offerings5930 according to the number4557 of them all:3605 for3588 Job347 said,559 It may be194 that my sons1121 have sinned,2398 and cursed1288 God430 in their hearts.3824 Thus3602 did6213 Job347 continually.3605 3117

5 And it was so, when the days of their feasting were over, 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.

6 Now there was1961 a day3117 when the sons1121 of God430 came935 to present themselves3320 before5921 the LORD,3068 and Satan7854 came935 also1571 among8432 them.

6 Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present them selves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them.

7 And the LORD3068 said559 unto413 Satan,7854 Whence4480 370 comest935 thou? Then Satan7854 answered6030 853 the LORD,3068 and said,559 From going to and fro4480 7751 in the earth,776 and from walking up and down4480 1980 in it.

7 And the LORD said to Satan, Whence have you come? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking on it.

8 And the LORD3068 said559 unto413 Satan,7854 Hast thou considered7760 3820 5921 my servant5650 Job,347 that3588 there is none369 like him3644 in the earth,776 a perfect8535 and an upright3477 man,376 one that feareth3373 God,430 and escheweth5493 evil?4480 7451

8 Then the LORD said to Satan, Have you considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, an innocent and upright man, one who reveres God, and turns away from evil?

9 Then Satan7854 answered6030 853 the LORD,3068 and said,559 Doth Job347 fear3372 God430 for naught?2600

9 Then Satan answered the LORD and said, Does Job revere God for nought?

10 Hast not3808 thou859 made a hedge7753 about1157 him, and about1157 his house,1004 and about1157 all3605 that834 he hath on every side?4480 5439 thou hast blessed1288 the work4639 of his hands,3027 and his substance4735 is increased6555 in the land.776

10 Thou hast rested thy hand of protection upon him and upon his house and upon his children and upon everything that he has everywhere; thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.

11 But199 put forth7971 thine hand3027 now,4994 and touch5060 all3605 that834 he hath, and518 he will curse1288 thee to5921 thy face.6440

11 But put forth thy hand now, and destroy all that he has, and he will curse thee to thy face.

12 And the LORD3068 said559 unto413 Satan,7854 Behold,2009 all3605 that834 he hath is in thy power;3027 only7535 upon413 himself put not forth408 7971 thine hand.3027 So Satan7854 went forth3318 from4480 5973 the presence6440 of the LORD.3068

12 And the LORD said to Satan, Behold, all that he has is in your power; only upon himself you shall not put forth your hand. So Satan went out from the presence of the LORD.

13 And there was1961 a day3117 when his sons1121 and his daughters1323 were eating398 and drinking8354 wine3196 in their eldest1060 brother's251 house: 1004

13 And there was a day when Job's sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother's house;

14 And there came935 a messenger4397 unto413 Job,347 and said,559 The oxen1241 were1961 plowing,2790 and the asses860 feeding7462 beside5921 3027 them:

14 And there came a messenger to Job, and said to him, The oxen were plowing, and the asses feeding be side them;

15 And the Sabeans7614 fell5307 upon them, and took them away;3947 yea, they have slain5221 the servants5288 with the edge6310 of the sword;2719 and I589 only7535 am escaped4422 alone905 to tell5046 thee.

15 And robbers raided them, and carried them away, and they have slain the servants with the edge of the sword, and I only have escaped to en_lbp_inform you.

16 While he2088 was yet5750 speaking,1696 there came935 also another,2088 and said,559 The fire784 of God430 is fallen5307 from4480 heaven,8064 and hath burned up1197 the sheep,6629 and the servants,5288 and consumed398 them; and I589 only7535 am escaped4422 alone905 to tell5046 thee.

16 While he was yet speaking, there came another, and said to him, The fire of God is fallen from heaven, and has burned up the sheep and the shepherds, and consumed them; and I only have escaped to en_lbp_inform you.

17 While he2088 was yet5750 speaking,1696 there came935 also another,2088 and said,559 The Chaldeans3778 made7760 out three7969 bands,7218 and fell6584 upon5921 the camels,1581 and have carried them away,3947 yea, and slain5221 the servants5288 with the edge6310 of the sword;2719 and I589 only7535 am escaped4422 alone905 to tell5046 thee.

17 While he was yet speaking, there came another, and said to him, The Chaldeans divided themselves into three bands, and raided the camels, and carried them away, and slew the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only have escaped to en_lbp_inform you.

18 While he2088 was yet5750 speaking,1696 there came935 also another,2088 and said,559 Thy sons1121 and thy daughters1323 were eating398 and drinking8354 wine3196 in their eldest1060 brother's251 house: 1004

18 While he was yet speaking, there came another, and said to him, Your sons and your daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother's house;

19 And, behold,2009 there came935 a great1419 wind7307 from4480 5676 the wilderness,4057 and smote5060 the four702 corners6438 of the house,1004 and it fell5307 upon5921 the young men,5288 and they are dead;4191 and I589 only7535 am escaped4422 alone905 to tell5046 thee.

19 And, behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and smote the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they are dead; and I only have escaped to en_lbp_inform you.

20 Then Job347 arose,6965 and rent7167 853 his mantle,4598 and shaved1494 853 his head,7218 and fell down5307 upon the ground,776 and worshiped,7812

20 Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped,

21 And said,559 Naked6174 came I out3318 of my mother's womb,4480 990 517 and naked6174 shall I return7725 thither:8033 the LORD3068 gave,5414 and the LORD3068 hath taken away;3947 blessed1288 be1961 the name8034 of the LORD.3068

21 And he said, Naked I came out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return; the LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD.

22 In all3605 this2063 Job347 sinned2398 not,3808 nor3808 charged5414 God430 foolishly.8604

22 In all these disasters, Job did not sin, nor did he blaspheme against the LORD.
