Job 2
1 Again there 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.
factum est autem cum quadam die venissent filii Dei et starent coram Domino venisset quoque Satan inter eos et staret in conspectu eius
2 And the LORD said to Satan, From where comest thou? And Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking up and down upon it.
ut diceret Dominus ad Satan unde venis qui respondens ait circuivi terram et perambulavi eam
3 And the LORD said to Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and turneth away from evil? and still he holdeth fast his integrity, although thou didst move me against him, to destroy him without cause.
et dixit Dominus ad Satan numquid considerasti servum meum Iob quod non sit ei similis in terra vir simplex et rectus timens Deum ac recedens a malo et adhuc retinens innocentiam tu autem commovisti me adversus eum ut adfligerem illum frustra
4 And Satan answered the LORD, and said, Skin for skin, even, all that a man hath will he give for his life.
cui respondens Satan ait pellem pro pelle et cuncta quae habet homo dabit pro anima sua
5 But put forth thy hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will curse thee to thy face.
alioquin mitte manum tuam et tange os eius et carnem et tunc videbis quod in facie benedicat tibi
6 And the LORD said to Satan, Behold, he is in thy hand; but save his life.
dixit ergo Dominus ad Satan ecce in manu tua est verumtamen animam illius serva
7 So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD, and smote Job with severe boils from the sole of his foot to his crown.
egressus igitur Satan a facie Domini percussit Iob ulcere pessimo a planta pedis usque ad verticem eius
8 And he took a potsherd to scrape himself with; and he sat down among the ashes.
qui testa saniem deradebat sedens in sterquilinio
9 Then said his wife to him, Dost thou still retain thy integrity? curse God, and die.
dixit autem illi uxor sua adhuc tu permanes in simplicitate tua benedic Deo et morere
10 But he said to her, Thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh. What? shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this did not Job sin with his lips.
qui ait ad illam quasi una de stultis locuta es si bona suscepimus de manu Domini quare mala non suscipiamus in omnibus his non peccavit Iob labiis suis
11 Now when Job’s three friends heard of all this evil that had come upon him, they came every one from his own place; Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite: for they had made an appointment together to come to mourn with him and to comfort him.
igitur audientes tres amici Iob omne malum quod accidisset ei venerunt singuli de loco suo Eliphaz Themanites et Baldad Suites et Sophar Naamathites condixerant enim ut pariter venientes visitarent eum et consolarentur
12 And when they lifted up their eyes afar off, and knew him not, they raised their voice, and wept; and they tore every one his mantle, and sprinkled dust upon their heads toward heaven.
cumque levassent procul oculos suos non cognoverunt eum et exclamantes ploraverunt scissisque vestibus sparserunt pulverem super caput suum in caelum
13 So they sat down with him upon the ground seven days and seven nights, and none spoke a word to him: for they saw that his grief was very great.
et sederunt cum eo in terram septem diebus et septem noctibus et nemo loquebatur ei verbum videbant enim dolorem esse vehementem
