Job’s Character and Wealth

1 There was a man in the land of ^aUz whose name was Job, and that man was ^bblameless and ^cupright, one who ^dfeared God and ^eturned away from evil.

21 And he said, ^w“Naked I came from my mother’s womb, and naked shall I return. The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away; ^xblessed be the name of the Lord.”

10 But he said to her, “You speak as one of the ^jfoolish women would speak. Shall we receive good from God, and shall we not receive evil?”^{1 k}In all this Job did not sin with his lips.

12 And the Lord blessed ^ythe latter days of Job more than his beginning. And ^zhe had 14,000 sheep, 6,000 camels, 1,000 yoke of oxen, and 1,000 female donkeys.
