Job 2:1-6

Listen to Job 2:1-6

Segunda prueba de Job

1 Llegó el día en que los ángeles[a] debían hacer acto de presencia ante el SEÑOR, y con ellos llegó también Satanás para presentarse ante el SEÑOR.
2 Y el SEÑOR le preguntó:—¿De dónde vienes?—Vengo de rondar la tierra, y de recorrerla de un extremo a otro —le respondió Satanás.
3 —¿Te has puesto a pensar en mi siervo Job? —volvió a preguntarle el SEÑOR—. No hay en la tierra nadie como él; es un hombre recto e intachable, que me honra y vive apartado del mal. Y aunque tú me incitaste contra él para arruinarlo sin motivo, ¡todavía mantiene firme su integridad!
4 —¡Una cosa por la otra! —replicó Satanás—. Con tal de salvar la vida, el hombre da todo lo que tiene.
5 Pero extiende la mano y hiérelo, ¡a ver si no te maldice en tu propia cara!
6 —Muy bien —dijo el SEÑOR a Satanás—, Job está en tus manos. Eso sí, respeta su vida.

Job 2:1-6 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO JOB 2

This chapter gives an account of a second trial of Job's constancy and integrity, the time and occasion of it, Job 2:1-3; the motion made for it by Satan, which being granted, he smote him from head to foot with sore boils, which he endured very patiently, Job 2:4-8; during which sad affliction he is urged by his wife to give up his integrity, which he bravely resisted, Job 2:9,10; and the chapter is concluded with an account of a visit of three of Job's friends, and of their conduct and behaviour towards him, Job 2:11-13.
