Iyov 2:2 In-Context

1 Again there was a day when the Bnei HaElohim came to present themselves before Hashem, and Hasatan came also among them to present himself before Hashem.

2 And Hashem said unto Hasatan, From where comest thou? And Hasatan answered Hashem, and said, From going to and fro through ha’aretz, and from walking up and down in it.

3 And Hashem said unto Hasatan, Hast thou considered in your meditation Avdi (My Servant) Iyov, that there is none like him in ha’aretz, ish tam and yashar, yire Elohim, and shunning rah? And still he holdeth fast his integrity, although thou inciteth Me against him, to ruin him for no reason.

4 And Hasatan answered Hashem, and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that an ish hath will he give for his nefesh.

5 But stretch forth Thine yad now, and touch his etzem and his basar, and he will curse Thee to Thy face.
