The Lord said to Satan, “Have you considered My servant Job? For there is no one like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man fearing God and turning away from evil. And he still holds fast his integrity, although you incited Me against him to ruin him without cause.”

“But as for me, I would seek God,
And I would place my cause before God;

“For He bruises me with a tempest
And multiplies my wounds without cause.

“Will You cause a driven leaf to tremble?
Or will You pursue the dry chaff?

“For you have taken pledges of your brothers without cause,
And stripped men naked.

“They cause the poor to go about naked without clothing,
And they take away the sheaves from the hungry.

“You lift me up to the wind and cause me to ride;
And You dissolve me in a storm.
