Job's Character and Wealth
1
There was a man in the land of 1Uz whose name was 2Job, and that man was 3blameless and upright, one who 4feared God and 5turned away from evil.
2
There were born to him 6seven sons and three daughters.
3
He possessed 7,000 sheep, 3,000 camels, 500 yoke of oxen, and 500 female donkeys, and very many servants, so that this man was the greatest of all 7the people of the east.
4
His sons used to go and hold a feast in the house of each one on his day, and they would send and invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them.
5
And when the days of the feast had run their course, Job would send and 8consecrate them, and he would rise early in the morning and 9offer burnt offerings according to the number of them all. For Job said, "It may be that my children have sinned, and 10curseda God in their hearts." Thus Job did continually.
