Job 1:1There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil.Job 1:5And 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.Job 1:8And the Lord said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil?Job 1:9Then Satan answered the Lord, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought?Job 1:14And there came a messenger unto Job, and said, The oxen were plowing, and the asses feeding beside them:Job 1:20Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped,Job 1:22In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly.Job 2:3And the Lord said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil? and still he holdeth fast his integrity, although thou movedst me against him, to destroy him without cause.Job 2:7So went Satan forth from the presence of the Lord, and smote Job with sore boils from the sole of his foot unto his crown.Job 2:10But 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.
