'Adversity' in the Bible

“You speak as a foolish woman speaks,” he told her. “Should we accept only good from God and not adversity?” Throughout all this Job did not sin in what he said.

Now when Job’s three friends—Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite—heard about all this adversity that had happened to him, each of them came from his home. They met together to go and sympathize with him and comfort him.

Terrify him do adversity and distress, They prevail over him As a king ready for a boaster.

“And if they are bound in bonds [of adversity],And held by cords of affliction,

“He rescues the afflicted in their affliction,And opens their ears [so that they pay attention to His voice] in times of oppression.

All his brothers, sisters, and former acquaintances came to his house and dined with him in his house. They sympathized with him and comforted him concerning all the adversity the Lord had brought on him. Each one gave him a qesitah and a gold earring.
