There was a man in the land of Uz whose name was Job; and that man was blameless, upright, fearing God and turning away from evil.

He said,
“Naked I came from my mother’s womb,
And naked I shall return there.
The Lord gave and the Lord has taken away.
Blessed be the name of the Lord.”

“Memory of him perishes from the earth,
And he has no name abroad.

“Fools, even those without a name,
They were scourged from the land.
