Job 2:7
Compare all
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 2:7

Boils - Like those inflicted upon the Egyptians, which are expressed by the same word, and threatened to apostate Israelites, Deuteronomy 28:27, whereby he was made loathsome to himself, and to his nearest relations, and filled with consuming pains in his body, and no less torments and anguish in his mind.
