Then the Lord said to Satan, “Behold, all that he has is in your power, only do not put forth your hand on him.” So Satan departed from the presence of the Lord.

So the Lord said to Satan, “Behold, he is in your power, only spare his life.”

“For we are only of yesterday and know nothing,
Because our days on earth are as a shadow.

“Only two things do not do to me,
Then I will not hide from Your face:

“But his body pains him,
And he mourns only for himself.”

“My bone clings to my skin and my flesh,
And I have escaped only by the skin of my teeth.
