Job:1:1-5
Seeker Overlay ON
*
There was a man in the land of Uz ,
whose name was Job ;
and that man was blameless and upright ,
and one who feared God and shunned evil .
*
And seven sons and three daughters were born to him .
*
Also ,
his possessions were seven thousand sheep ,
three thousand camels ,
five hundred yoke of oxen ,
five hundred female donkeys ,
and a very large household ,
so that this man was the greatest of all the people of the East .
*
And his sons would go and feast in their houses ,
each on his appointed day ,
and would send and invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them .
*
So it was ,
when the days of feasting had run their course ,
that Job would send and sanctify them ,
and he would rise early in the morning and offer 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 Job did regularly .
