Job:1:6-12
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD ,
and Satan came also among them .
*
And 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 .
*
And 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 ?
*
Then Satan answered the LORD ,
and said ,
Doth Job fear God for nought ?
*
Hast 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 .
*
But put forth thine hand now ,
and touch all that he hath ,
and he will curse thee to thy face .
*
And 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 .
