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!”
