Job 2:1-6

Jubilee Bible 2000 JUB

1 Again there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them to present himself before the LORD.

2 And the LORD said unto Satan, Where dost thou come from? And Satan answered the LORD and said, From going to and fro in the earth and from walking up and down in it.

3 And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my slave Job, that <em>there is</em> none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that fears God and has departed from evil and that he still retains his perfection, although thou didst incite me against him to destroy him without cause.

4 And Satan answered the LORD and said, Skin for skin, all that a man has he will give for his life.

5 But put forth thy hand now and touch his bone and his flesh, <em>and thou shalt see</em> if he does not blaspheme thee to thy face.

6 And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, he <em>is</em> in thy hand, but preserve his life.

New International Version NIV

1 On another day the angels came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came with them to present himself before him.

2 And the LORD said to Satan, “Where have you come from?” Satan answered the LORD, “From roaming throughout the earth, going back and forth on it.”

3 Then the LORD said to Satan, “Have you considered my servant Job? There is no one on earth like him; he is blameless and upright, a man who fears God and shuns evil. And he still maintains his integrity, though you incited me against him to ruin him without any reason.”

4 “Skin for skin!” Satan replied. “A man will give all he has for his own life.

5 But now stretch out your hand and strike his flesh and bones, and he will surely curse you to your face.”

6 The LORD said to Satan, “Very well, then, he is in your hands; but you must spare his life.”
