6Now it happened on the day when the sons of God came to present themselves before Yahweh, that Satan also came among them.
7Yahweh said to Satan, "Where have you come from?" Then Satan answered Yahweh, and said, "From going back and forth in the earth, and from walking up and down in it."
8Yahweh said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant, Job? For there is none like him in the earth, a blameless and an upright man, one who fears God, and turns away from evil."
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.
