Jó 2
1 E, vindo outro dia, em que os filhos de Deus vieram apresentar-se perante o Senhor, veio também Satanás entre eles, 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 Satanás: de onde vens? E respondeu Satanás ao Senhor, e disse: De rodeiar a terra, e passeiar por ela.
And Jehovah said to Satan, From where did thou come? And Satan answered Jehovah, and said, From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking up and down on it.
3 E disse o Senhor a Satanás: Consideraste ao meu servo Job? porque ninguém há na terra semelhante a ele, homem sincero e reto, temente a Deus, e desviando-se do mal, e que ainda retém a sua sinceridade; havendo-me tu incitado contra ele, para o consumir sem causa.
And Jehovah said to Satan, Have thou considered my servant Job? For there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one who fears God, and turns away from evil. And he still holds fast his integrity, although thou moved me against him, to destroy him without cause.
4 Então Satanás respondeu ao Senhor, e disse: pele por pele, e tudo quanto o homem tem dará pela sua vida.
And Satan answered Jehovah, and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that a man has he will 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 Satanás: eis que ele está na tua mão; porém guarda a sua vida.
And Jehovah said to Satan, Behold, he is in thy hand, only spare his life.
7 Então saiu Satanás da presença do Senhor, e feriu a Job de 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 severe boils from the sole of his foot to his crown.
8 E tomou um caco para se raspar com ele: e estava assentado no meio da cinza.
And he took a potsherd for him to scrape himself with it, and he sat among the ashes.
9 Então sua mulher lhe disse: Ainda retens a tua sinceridade? amaldiçoa a Deus, e morre.
Then his wife said to him, Do thou still hold fast thine integrity? Renounce God, and die.
10 Porém ele lhe disse: Como fala qualquer das doidas, falas tu; receberemos o bem de Deus, e não receberiamos o mal? Em tudo isto não pecou Job com os seus lábios.
But he said to her, Thou speak as one of the foolish women speaks. What? Shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this Job did not sin with his lips.
11 Ouvindo pois três amigos de Job todo este mal que tinha vindo sobre ele, vieram cada um do seu lugar; Eliphaz o temanita, e Bildad o suhita, e Sofar o naamathita; e concertaram juntamente de virem condoer-se dele, e para o consolarem.
Now when Job's three friends heard of all this evil that came upon him, they came each 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 did not recognize him, they lifted up their voice, and wept. And each one tore his robe, and sprinkled dust upon their heads toward heaven.
13 E se assentaram juntamente com ele na terra, sete dias e sete noites: e nenhum lhe dizia palavra alguma, porque viam que a dor era mui grande.
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.
