King James Version
1. There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was blameless and upright, and one who feared God and shunned evil. 2. And seven sons and three daughters were born to him. 3. Also, his possessions were seven thousand sheep, three thousand camels, five hundred yoke of oxen, five hundred female donkeys, and a very large household, so that this man was the greatest of all the people of the East. 4. And his sons would go and feast in their houses, each on his appointed day, and would send and invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them. 5. So it was, when the days of feasting had run their course, that Job would send and sanctify them, and he would rise early in the morning and offer burnt offerings according to the number of them all. For Job said, "It may be that my sons have sinned and cursed God in their hearts." Thus Job did regularly. 6. Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came among them. 7. And the LORD said to Satan, "From where do you come?" So Satan answered the LORD and said, "From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking back and forth on it." 8. Then the LORD said to Satan, "Have you considered My servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, one who fears God and shuns evil?" 9. So Satan answered the LORD and said, "Does Job fear God for nothing? 10. "Have You not made a hedge around him, around his household, and around all that he has on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land. 11. "But now, stretch out Your hand and touch all that he has, and he will surely curse You to Your face!" 12. And the LORD said to Satan, "Behold, all that he has is in your power; only do not lay a hand on his person ." So Satan went out from the presence of the LORD. 13. Now there was a day when his sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother’s house; 14. and a messenger came to Job and said, "The oxen were plowing and the donkeys feeding beside them, 15. "when the Sabeans raided them and took them away––indeed they have killed the servants with the edge of the sword; and I alone have escaped to tell you!" 16. While he was still speaking, another also came and said, "The fire of God fell from heaven and burned up the sheep and the servants, and consumed them; and I alone have escaped to tell you!" 17. While he was still speaking, another also came and said, "The Chaldeans formed three bands, raided the camels and took them away, yes, and killed the servants with the edge of the sword; and I alone have escaped to tell you!" 18. While he was still speaking, another also came and said, "Your sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother’s house, 19. "and suddenly a great wind came from across the wilderness and struck the four corners of the house, and it fell on the young people, and they are dead; and I alone have escaped to tell you!" 20. Then Job arose, tore his robe, and shaved his head; and he fell to the ground and worshiped. 21. And he said: "Naked I came from my mother’s womb, And naked shall I return there. The LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away; Blessed be the name of the LORD." 22. In all this Job did not sin nor charge God with wrong.
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 to Satan, "From where do you come?" So Satan answered the LORD and said, "From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking back and forth on it." 3. Then the LORD said to Satan, "Have you considered My servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, one who fears God and shuns evil? And still he holds fast to his integrity, although you incited Me against him, to destroy him without cause." 4. So Satan answered the LORD and said, "Skin for skin! Yes, all that a man has he will give for his life. 5. "But stretch out Your hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will surely curse You to Your face!" 6. And the LORD said to Satan, "Behold, he is in your hand, but spare his life." 7. So Satan went out from the presence of the LORD, and struck Job with painful boils from the sole of his foot to the crown of his head. 8. And he took for himself a potsherd with which to scrape himself while he sat in the midst of the ashes. 9. Then his wife said to him, "Do you still hold fast to your integrity? Curse God and die!" 10. But he said to her, "You speak as one of the foolish women speaks. Shall we indeed accept good from God, and shall we not accept adversity?" In all this Job did not sin with his lips. 11. Now when Job’s three friends heard of all this adversity that had come upon him, each one came from his own place––Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite. For they had made an appointment together to come and mourn with him, and to comfort him. 12. And when they raised their eyes from afar, and did not recognize him, they lifted their voices and wept; and each one tore his robe and sprinkled dust on his head toward heaven. 13. So they sat down with him on the ground seven days and seven nights, and no one spoke a word to him, for they saw that his grief was very great.
53. And they led Jesus away to the high priest; and with him were assembled all the chief priests, the elders, and the scribes. 54. But Peter followed Him at a distance, right into the courtyard of the high priest. And he sat with the servants and warmed himself at the fire. 55. Now the chief priests and all the council sought testimony against Jesus to put Him to death, but found none. 56. For many bore false witness against Him, but their testimonies did not agree. 57. Then some rose up and bore false witness against Him, saying, 58. "We heard Him say, ‘I will destroy this temple made with hands, and within three days I will build another made without hands.’" 59. But not even then did their testimony agree. 60. And the high priest stood up in the midst and asked Jesus, saying, "Do You answer nothing? What is it these men testify against You?" 61. But He kept silent and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked Him, saying to Him, "Are You the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?" 62. Jesus said, "I am. And you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven." 63. Then the high priest tore his clothes and said, "What further need do we have of witnesses? 64. "You have heard the blasphemy! What do you think?" And they all condemned Him to be deserving of death. 65. Then some began to spit on Him, and to blindfold Him, and to beat Him, and to say to Him, "Prophesy!" And the officers struck Him with the palms of their hands. 66. Now as Peter was below in the courtyard, one of the servant girls of the high priest came. 67. And when she saw Peter warming himself, she looked at him and said, "You also were with Jesus of Nazareth." 68. But he denied it, saying, "I neither know nor understand what you are saying." And he went out on the porch, and a rooster crowed. 69. And the servant girl saw him again, and began to say to those who stood by, "This is one of them." 70. But he denied it again. And a little later those who stood by said to Peter again, "Surely you are one of them; for you are a Galilean, and your speech shows it ." 71. Then he began to curse and swear, "I do not know this Man of whom you speak!" 72. A second time the rooster crowed. Then Peter called to mind the word that Jesus had said to him, "Before the rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times." And when he thought about it, he wept.
