Satan Attacks Job’s Health

1 Again athere was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan came also among them to present himself before the Lord.  
2 And the Lord said to Satan, “From where do you come?” aSatan answered the Lord and said, “From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking back and forth on it.”  
3 Then the Lord said to Satan, “Have you considered My servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, aa blameless and upright man, one who fears God and shuns evil? And still he bholds fast to his integrity, although you incited Me against him, cto destroy him without cause.”  
4 So Satan answered the Lord and said, “Skin for skin! Yes, all that a man has he will give for his life.
5 aBut stretch out Your hand now, and touch his bbone and his flesh, and he will surely1 curse You to Your face!”  
6 aAnd the Lord said to Satan, “Behold, he is in your hand, but spare his life.”  
7 So Satan went out from the presence of the Lord, and struck Job with painful boils afrom the sole of his foot to the crown of his head.  
8 And he took for himself a potsherd with which to scrape himself awhile he sat in the midst of the ashes.  
9 Then his wife said to him, “Do you still hold fast to your integrity?1 Curse God and die!”  
10 But he said to her, “You speak as one of the foolish women speaks. aShall we indeed accept good from God, and shall we not accept adversity?” bIn all this Job did not csin with his lips.  

Job’s Three Friends

11 Now when Job’s three friends heard of all this adversity that had come upon him, each one came from his own place—Eliphaz the aTemanite, Bildad the bShuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite. For they had made an appointment together to come cand mourn with him, and to comfort him.  
12 And when they raised their eyes from afar, and did not recognize him, they lifted their voices and wept; and each one tore his robe and asprinkled dust on his head toward heaven.
