9 Satan answered the LORD, “Does Job fear God for nothing?
10 Have You not placed a hedge on every side around him and his household and all that he owns? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land.
11 But stretch out Your hand and strike all that he has, and he will surely curse You to Your face.”
