◄ H347 ►

There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was H347; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil.

And it was so, when the days of their feasting were gone about, that H347 sent and sanctified them, and rose up early in the morning, and offered burnt offerings according to the number of them all: for H347 said, It may be that my sons have sinned, and cursed God in their hearts. Thus did H347 continually.

And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant H347, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil?

Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, Doth H347 fear God for nought?

And there came a messenger unto H347, and said, The oxen were plowing, and the asses feeding beside them:

Then H347 arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped,

In all this H347 sinned not, nor charged God foolishly.

And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant H347, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil? and still he holdeth fast his integrity, although thou movedst me against him, to destroy him without cause.

So went Satan forth from the presence of the LORD, and smote H347 with sore boils from the sole of his foot unto his crown.

But he said unto her, Thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh. What? shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this did not H347 sin with his lips.
