7. And the Lord said to him: Whence comest thou? And he answered and said: I have gone round about the earth, and walked through it.
8. And the Lord said to him: Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a simple and upright man, and fearing God, and avoiding evil?
9. And Satan answering, said: Doth Job fear God in vain?
10. Hast not thou made a fence for him, and his house, and all his substance round about, blessed the works of his hands, and his possession hath increased on the earth?
11. But stretch forth thy hand a little, and touch all that he hath, and see if he blesseth thee not to thy face.
12. Then the Lord said to Satan: Behold, all that he hath is in thy hand: only put not forth thy hand upon his person. And Satan went forth from the presence of the Lord.
