The Second Heavenly Council

Job 2:1-6

And on a day the children of God came and stood before the Lord, and Satan came also among them, and stoode before the Lord.

Then the Lord sayde vnto Satan, Whence commest thou? And Satan answered the Lord, and sayd, From compassing the earth to and from, and from walking in it.

And the Lord sayd vnto Satan, Hast thou not considered my seruant Iob, how none is like him in the earth? an vpright and iust man, one that feareth God, and escheweth euill? for yet he continueth in his vprightnesse, although thou mouedst me against him, to destroy him without cause.

And Satan answered the Lord, and sayde, Skin for skin, and all that euer a man hath, will he giue for his life.

But stretch now out thine hand, and touch his bones and his flesh, to see if he will not blaspheme thee to thy face.

Then the Lord said vnto Satan, Lo, he is in thine hand, but saue his life.
