Jó 2
1 E, vindo outro dia, em que os filhos de Deus vieram apresentar-se perante o Senhor, veiu tambem Satanaz entre elles, apresentar-se perante o Senhor.
Again it came to pass on the day when the sons of God came to present themselves before Jehovah, that Satan came also among them to present himself before Jehovah.
2 Então o Senhor disse a Satanaz: D'onde vens? E respondeu Satanaz ao Senhor, e disse: De rodeiar a terra, e passeiar por ella.
And Jehovah said unto Satan, From whence comest thou? And Satan answered Jehovah, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.
3 E disse o Senhor a Satanaz: Consideraste ao meu servo Job? porque ninguem ha na terra similhante a elle, homem sincero e recto, temente a Deus, e desviando-se do mal, e que ainda retem a sua sinceridade; havendo-me tu incitado contra elle, para o consumir sem causa.
And Jehovah said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job? for there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and turneth away from evil: and he still holdeth fast his integrity, although thou movedst me against him, to destroy him without cause.
4 Então Satanaz respondeu ao Senhor, e disse: Pelle por pelle, e tudo quanto o homem tem dará pela sua vida.
And Satan answered Jehovah, and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that a man hath will he give for his life.
5 Porém estende a tua mão, e toca-lhe nos ossos, e na carne, e verás se te não amaldiçoa na tua face
But put forth thy hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will renounce thee to thy face.
6 E disse o Senhor a Satanaz: Eis-que elle está na tua mão; porém guarda a sua vida.
And Jehovah said unto Satan, Behold, he is in thy hand; only spare his life.
7 Então saiu Satanaz da presença do Senhor, e feriu a Job d'uma chaga maligna, desde a planta do pé até ao alto da cabeça.
So Satan went forth from the presence of Jehovah, and smote Job with sore boils from the sole of his foot unto his crown.
8 E tomou um caco para se raspar com elle: e estava assentado no meio da cinza.
And he took him a potsherd to scrape himself therewith; and he sat among the ashes.
9 Então sua mulher lhe disse: Ainda retens a tua sinceridade? amaldiçoa a Deus, e morre.
Then said his wife unto him, Dost thou still hold fast thine integrity? renounce God, and die.
10 Porém elle lhe disse: Como falla qualquer das doidas, fallas tu; receberemos o bem de Deus, e não receberiamos o mal? Em tudo isto não peccou Job com os seus labios.
But he said unto 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.
11 Ouvindo pois tres amigos de Job todo este mal que tinha vindo sobre elle, vieram cada um do seu logar; Eliphaz o temanita, e Bildad o suhita, e Sofar o naamathita; e concertaram juntamente de virem condoer-se d'elle, e para o consolarem.
Now when Job’s three friends heard of all this evil that was come upon him, they came every one from his own place: Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite; and they made an appointment together to come to bemoan him and to comfort him.
12 E, levantando de longe os seus olhos, não o conheceram: e levantaram a sua voz e choraram; e rasgaram cada um o seu manto, e sobre as suas cabeças lançaram pó ao ar.
And when they lifted up their eyes afar off, and knew him not, they lifted up their voice, and wept; and they rent every one his robe, and sprinkled dust upon their heads toward heaven.
13 E se assentaram juntamente com elle na terra, sete dias e sete noites: e nenhum lhe dizia palavra alguma, porque viam que a dôr era mui grande.
So they sat down with him upon the ground seven days and seven nights, and none spake a word unto him: for they saw that his grief was very great.
