1
Again there was a day when the sons of Godcame to present themselves before the LORD, and Satancame also among them to present himself before the LORD.
2
And the LORDsaid unto Satan, From whencecomest thou? And Satananswered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.
3
And the LORDsaid unto Satan, Hast thouconsidered my servantJob, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an uprightman, one that fearethGod, and eschewethevil? and still he holdeth fast his integrity, although thou movedst me against him, to destroy him without cause.
