9Then Satan answered Yahweh, and said, "Does Job fear God for nothing?
10Haven`t you made a hedge around him, and around his house, and around all that he has, on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.
11But put forth your hand now, and touch all that he has, and he will renounce you to your face."
12Yahweh said to Satan, "Behold, all that he has is in your power. Only on himself don`t put forth your hand." So Satan went forth from the presence of Yahweh.
13It fell on a day when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother`s house,
14that there came a messenger to Job, and said, "The oxen were plowing, and the donkeys feeding beside them,
15and the Sabeans attacked, and took them away. Yes, they have killed the servants with the edge of the sword, and I alone have escaped to tell you."
