Job 2

² “Where have you come from?” said the LORD to Satan. “From roaming through the earth,” he replied, “and walking back and forth in it.”

³ Then the LORD said to Satan, “Have you considered My servant Job? For there is no one on earth like him, a man who is blameless and upright, who fears God and shuns evil. He still retains his integrity, even though you incited Me against him to ruin him without cause.”

⁴ “Skin for skin!” Satan replied. “A man will give up all he owns in exchange for his life.

⁵ But stretch out Your hand and strike his flesh and bones, and he will surely curse You to Your face.”

⁶ “Very well,” said the LORD to Satan. “He is in your hands, but you must spare his life.”
