Job 1:6-12

Coverdale(i) 6 Now vpon a tyme, when the seruauntes of God came and stode before the LORDE, Sathan came also amonge them. 7 And the LORDE sayde vnto Sathan: From whence commest thou? Sathan answered the LORDE, and sayde: I haue gone aboute the lode, and walked thorow it. 8 Then sayde the LORDE vnto Satha: hast thou not considered my seruaunt Iob, how that he is an innocet and vertuous ma: soch one as feareth God, and eschueth euell, and that there is none like him in the londe? 9 Sathan answered, and sayde vnto the LORDE: Doth Iob feare God for naught? 10 hast thou not preserued him, his house, and all his substaunce on euery syde? hast thou not blessed the workes of his hondes? Is not his possession encreaced in the londe? 11 But laye thyne honde vpo him a litle, touch once all that he hath, and (I holde) he shall curse the to thy face. 12 And the LORDE sayde vnto Sathan: lo all that he hath, be in thy power: only vpon himself se that thou laye not thine honde. Then wente Sathan forth from the LORDE.
