Great⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ And the children of God came and stode before the Lorde, and Satan came also amonge them, and stode before the Lorde. ² And the Lord sayde vnto Satan: From whence commest thou? Satan answered the Lorde, and sayde: I haue gone about the land, and walcked thorow it. ³ And the Lorde sayde vnto Satan: hast thou not consydered my seruaunt Iob? for there is none lyke him in the land. For he is a perfect and iust man, soch a one as feareth God, and exchueth euell, & contynueth styll in hys godlynesse. And thou mouedest me agaynst him, that I shulde punysh him for naught. ⁴ And Satan answered the Lord, & sayde: Skyn for skynne? yee, a man wyll geue all that euer he hath, for his lyfe. ⁵ But laye thyne hand now vpon him, and touch once his bone and flesh, and he shall curse the to thy face. ⁶ And the Lorde sayde vnto Satan: lo, there hast thou hym in thy power, but spare hys lyfe. ⁷ So went Satan forth from the presence of the Lord, and smote Iob with maruelous sore byles, from the sole of hys fote vnto hys crowne: ⁸ so that he sat vpon the ground in the asshes, and scraped of the fylth of hys sores with a potsherde.
