It recounts Job’s upright character, the heavenly meeting in which Satan challenges his goodness, and the losses that strike Job’s wealth, family, and health in successive tests. The account follows Job’s friends, their silence and later advice, and Job’s lament about pain, rejection, and injustice, while emphasizing praise for God’s name even amid grief.","Literacy International:  \nJob  \nCopyright © 2018 Literacy International [info@LiteracyInternational.net](info@LiteracyInternational.net)  \nEnglish Spiritual  \nLiteracy International: Job  \nCopyright © 2018 Literacy International [info@LiteracyInternational.net](info@LiteracyInternational.net)  \nEnglish  \nCopyright © 2018, Literacy International  \n[http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/](http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/)  \nYou are free to make commercial use of this work.

She just couldn’t take more sickness and suffering. Job was a fine man. But he had bleeding sores and terrible pain every day and night. Why?  \nThe Bible (Good News translation) says that Job “was a good man, careful not to do anything evil.” He owned 7,000 sheep, 3,000 camels, 1,000 cattle and 500 donkeys. He also had a large number of servants. The book of Job, Chapter 1, verse 3 says that he was the“greatest man in the East.”  \nJob had seven sons and three daughters. Verse 4 says Job’s sons took turns giving feasts. They would always invite their three sisters. Job would pray and make sacrifices on the mornings afterward. He didn’t want happy parties in his family to hide any sin, any word or thought against God.  \n* * * * * *  \nA special time came. Heavenly beings were to appear before God, and Satan (the Devil) came with them. The Bible doesn’t say when, or where.  \nGod asked Satan,“What have you been doing?”  \n“I have been walking here and there, roaming around the earth,” said Satan.  \n“Did you notice my servant Job?” the Lord asked.“There is no one on earth as faithful as he is. He worships Me and is careful not to do anything evil.”  \nSatan accused Job before the Lord. He said that Job’s goodness was not real.“Suppose you take away everything he has--he will curse you to your face.”God took away everything Job had, even his children, then his health. This was a test of Job’s faithfulness.  \nThree friends came to stay with Job. Their names were Eliphaz, Bildad and Zophar. They sat with him but said nothing. They wanted to honor him. They were afraid that any words they said would make him feel worse. For seven days they shared his grief in silence.  \nNobody on earth knew what was happening. Only God and Satan knew. Job, his wife, the three friends, and a wise young man who also came to visit, had no idea. Many good things were said but none really came to the point about Job’s suffering.  \nHere is how everything changed for Job. A messenger broke into a family feast.“We were plowing the fields with the oxen,” he said,“and the donkeys were in a nearby pasture. Suddenly the Sabeans (enemies) attacked and stole them all. They killed every one of your servants except me. I am the only one who escaped to tell you.”  \nBefore he finished talking, another servant came.“Lightning struck the sheep and the shepherds and killed them all,” this man said.“I am the only one who escaped to tell you.”  \nAnother servant came and said,“Three bands of Chaldean raiders attacked us, took away the camelsand killed all your servants, except me.”  \nAnd a fourth servant said,“Your children were having a feast in the home of your oldest son when a storm swept in from the desert. It blew the house down and killed them all.”  \nJob’s wealth and his family were gone in one day. They were wiped out. But Job did not blame God.“The Lord gave, and now He has taken away,” Job said.“May His name be praised.”(Job 1:21) . Job “passed” the first test.  \nAnother day came for the heavenly beings to meet God. Satan was there as before. God praised Job for being faithful to Him. Satan said God was wrong.“Now if you hurt his body he will curse you to your face,”Satan said.
