THE BOOK OF JOB THE JUST.

СНАР. І.

1. THERE was a certain man dwelling in the land
of Ausid, whose name was Job; and that man was
true, blameless, and godly, and abstained from all
evil.

2. And he had seven sons, and three daughters.

3. And his cattle were seven thousand sheep, three
thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and
five hundred she asses in the pastures, and many ser-
vants, and he had great works upon the earth; and
that man was the richest of those who dwelt in the
East.

4. And his sons came together daily; they drank
together in the house of their eldest brother, taking
with them also their three sisters, that they might
eat and drink with them.

5. And when the days of the feast were completed,
Job sent unto his herds, to take thence a calf, that he
might offer it for their souls: for Job said, lest my
sons should have thought evil in their hearts towards
God: thus therefore Job did continually.

6. And the day came, when the angels of God
came to stand before the Lord, and the devil came
also with them, and stood upon the earth, and passed
over it.
