And the LORD said to Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and shunneth evil? and still he holdeth fast his integrity, although thou movedst me against him, to destroy him without cause.

Is there not an appointed time to man upon earth? are not his days also like the days of a hireling?

He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his male organs are wrapped together.
