There was a man in the land of Uz whose name was Job. And that man was pure and upright, one who feared God and turned away from evil.
So the Lord said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant Job? There is no one like him on the earth, a pure and upright man, one who fears God and turns away from evil."
Then the Lord said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant Job? For there is no one like him on the earth, a pure and upright man, one who fears God and turns away from evil. And he still holds firmly to his integrity, so that you stirred me up to destroy him without reason."

In the older Eng. versions of the Bible 'eschew' is common. In AV it occurs only in Job 1:1,8; 2:3 of Job himself, as Job 1:1 'one that feared God, and eschewed evil,' and in 1Pe 3:11 'Let him eschew evil, and do good.' The meaning is 'turn away from' (as RV at 1Pe 3:11 and Amer. RV everywhere).
