Previous Chapter Previous Verse Full Chapter Next Verse Next Chapter
5 But put forth your hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will renounce you to your face."
6 Yahweh said to Satan, "Behold, he is in your hand. Only spare his life."
7 So Satan went forth from the presence of Yahweh, and struck Job with painful sores from the sole of his foot to his head.
8 He took for himself a potsherd to scrape himself with, and he sat among the ashes.
9 Then his wife said to him, "Do you still maintain your integrity? Renounce God, and die."
10 But he said to her, "You speak as one of the foolish women would speak. What? Shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil?" In all this Job didn`t sin with his lips.
11 Now when Job`s three friends heard of all this evil that had come on him, they each came from his own place: Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite, and they made an appointment together to come to sympathize with him and to comfort him.
