man
in the

Job

feared

eschewed
evil

strkjv@Job:1:2

born
unto him
seven
sons

three
daughters

strkjv@Job:1:3

also was
seven
thousand

three
thousand
camels

five
hundred

oxen

five
hundred

very
great
household

man
was the
greatest
of all the
men
of the
east
.
strkjv@Job:1:4
@ And his
sons
went
and
feasted
in their
houses
, every
one

sent

called
for their
three
sisters
to
eat
and to
drink
with them.
strkjv@Job:1:5
@ And 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
.
strkjv@Job:1:6
@ Now there was a
day
when the
sons
of
God
came
to
present
themselves before the
LORD
, and
Satan
came
also
among
them.
strkjv@Job:1:7
@ And the
LORD
said
unto
Satan
,
Whence
comest
thou? Then
Satan
answered
the
LORD

said

fro
in the
earth
, and from walking up and
down
in it.
strkjv@Job:1:8

LORD
said
unto

perfect
and an
upright
man

feareth
God

escheweth
evil

Job
fear
God
for
nought
?
strkjv@Job:1:10
@ Hast not thou made an
hedge
about him, and
about
his
house

blessed

is
increased
in the
land

put
forth
thine

thee to thy

LORD
said

came
a

dead

forth

took

Job
sin

strkjv@Job:2:11
@ Now when
Jobs
three
friends
heard
of all this
evil

came
every
one
from his own
place
;
Eliphaz

Temanite

Bildad
the
Shuhite

Zophar
the
Naamathite

appointment
together
to
come
to
mourn
with him and to
comfort
him.
strkjv@Job:2:12
@ And when they lifted
up
their
eyes
afar
off

knew
him not, they lifted
up
their
voice

wept
; and they
rent
every
one
his
mantle
m@, and
sprinkled
dust
upon their
heads
toward
heaven

strkjv@Job:2:13
@ So they sat
down
with him upon the
ground
seven
days

seven
nights

spake
a
word
unto him: for they
saw
that his
grief
was
very
great
.
strkjv@Job:3:1
@
After
this
opened
Job
his
mouth
, and
cursed
his
day

strkjv@Job:3:2

Job
spake
, and
said
,
strkjv@Job:3:3

day
perish
wherein I was
born

night

child
conceived

day
be
darkness

death
stain
it; let a

night

darkness
seize

dark

see
the
dawning
of the
day

up

doors

hid
sorrow

womb

ghost

prevent
me? or why the
breasts

built
desolate

strkjv@Job:3:15

gold

filled
their
houses

silver

saw
light

small

light

misery
