Chap. II.
Satan by Gods permi&esset;ion, 7. striketh Iob with sores from the sole of his foote
to the toppe of his head. 9. His wife also insulteth against him, but he
sinneth not 11 Three freindes coming to visite and conforte him, sitte silent
by him siuen dayes.
1 And it came to passe when on a certaine day the sonnes
of God were come, and stood before our Lord, and
Satan came among them, and stood in his sight,
2 that our
Lord sayd to Satan: From whence comest thou? who answering
sayd: I haue gone round about the earth, and walked
through it.
3 And our Lord sayd to Satan: Hast thou considered
my seruant Iob, that there is not the like to him in the
earth, a man note simple, and right, and fearing God, and departing
from euil, and yet reteyning innocencie? But thou hast
moued me against him, that I should afflict him in vaine.
4 To
whom Satan answering, said: Skinne for skinne, & al thinges
that a man hath, he wil geue for his life:
5 otherwise put thy
hand, and touch his bone and flesh, and then shalt thou see
that he wil blesse thee in the face.
6 Our Lord therfore sayd
to Satan: Behold he is in thy hand, but yet saue his life.
7 Satan
-- --
therfore going out from the face of our Lord, stroke Iob with
a verie sore boile, from the sole of the foote euen to the toppe
of his head:
8 who with a shel scraped the corruption, sitting
on a dunghil.
9 And note his wife sayd to him: Doost thou yet
continue in thy simplicitie? blesse God and die.
10 Who sayd to
her: Thou hast spoken like one of the foolish wemen, if we
haue receiued good things of the hand of God, euil thinges
why should we not receiue? In al these things Iob sinned not
with his lippes.
11 Therfore09Q0198 Iobs three frendes hearing al
the euil, that had changed to him, came euerie one out of their
place, Elephaz a Themanite, and Baldad a Suhite, and Sophar
a Naamathite. For they had appointed, that coming together
they would visite him, and confort him.
12 And when
they had lifted vp their eies a far of, they knew him not, and
crying out they wept, and renting their clothes sprinkled dust
ouer their head toward heauen.
13 And they sate with him on
the ground note seuen daies and seuen nightes, and no man spake
to him a word: for they saw the payne to be vehement.
