Job 1 - Prayer Tents

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.H376H776H5780H8034H347H376H8535H3477H3373H430H5493H7451 2And there were born unto him seven sons and three daughters.H3205H7651H1121H7969H1323 3His substance also 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.H4735H7651H505H6629H7969H505H1581H2568H3967H6776H1241H2568H3967H860H3966H7227H5657H376H1419H1121H6924 4And his sons went and feasted in their houses, every one his day; and sent and called for their three sisters to eat and to drink with them.H1121H1980H4960H6213H1004H376H3117H7971H7121H7969H269H398H8354 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.H3117H4960H5362H347H7971H6942H7925H1242H5927H5930H4557H347H559H194H1121H2398H1288H430H3824H6213H347H3117 6Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them.H3117H1121H430H935H3320H3068H7854H935H8432 7And the LORD said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.H3068H559H7854H370H935H7854H6030H3068H559H7751H776H1980 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?H3068H559H7854H7760H3820H5650H347H776H8535H3477H376H3373H430H5493H7451 9Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought?H7854H6030H3068H559H347H3372H430H2600 10Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.H7753H1157H1004H5439H1288H4639H3027H4735H6555H776 11But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will curse thee to thy face.H199H7971H3027H5060H1288H3808H6440 12And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, all that he hath is in thy power; only upon himself put not forth thine hand. So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD.H3068H559H7854H3027H7971H3027H7854H3318H6440H3068 13And there was a day when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house:H3117H1121H1323H398H8354H3196H1060H251H1004 14And there came a messenger unto Job, and said, The oxen were plowing, and the asses feeding beside them:H935H4397H347H559H1241H2790H860H7462H3027 15And the Sabeans fell upon them, and took them away; yea, they have slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.H7614H5307H3947H5221H5288H6310H2719H4422H5046 16While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The fire of God is fallen from heaven, and hath burned up the sheep, and the servants, and consumed them; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.H1696H935H559H784H430H5307H8064H1197H6629H5288H398H4422H5046 17While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The Chaldeans made out three bands, and fell upon the camels, and have carried them away, yea, and slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.H1696H935H559H3778H7760H7969H7218H6584H1581H3947H5221H5288H6310H2719H4422H5046 18While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, Thy sons and thy daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house:H1696H935H559H1121H1323H398H8354H3196H1060H251H1004 19And, 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 am escaped alone to tell thee.H935H1419H7307H5676H4057H5060H702H6438H1004H5307H5288H4191H4422H5046 20Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped,H347H6965H7167H4598H1494H7218H5307H776H7812 21And said, Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: the LORD gave, and the LORD hath taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD.H559H6174H3318H517H990H6174H7725H3068H5414H3068H3947H1288H8034H3068 22In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly.H347H2398H5414H430H8604
