*
Again it came to pass on the day when the sons of God came to present themselves before LORD ,
that Satan came also among them to present himself before LORD .

And LORD said to Satan ,
From where did thou come ?
And Satan answered LORD ,
and said ,

and from walking up and down on it .

and smote Job with severe boils from the sole of his foot to his crown .
*

and he sat among the ashes .
*
Then his wife said to him ,

and die .
*
But he said to her ,

Shall we receive good at the hand of God ,
and shall we not receive evil ?
In all this Job did not sin with his lips .
