Job 1:19-22 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

20. Then Job arose and tore his cloak and cut off his hair. He fell to the ground and worshiped.

21. He said,“Naked I came forth from my mother’s womb,and naked shall I go back 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 did he charge God with wrong.
