Job 2:4-6

New International Reader's Version

⁴ Satan replied, “A man will give everything he has to save himself. So Job is willing to give up the lives of his family to save his own life. ⁵ But now reach out your hand and strike his flesh and bones. Then I’m sure he will speak evil things against you. In fact, he’ll do it right in front of you.”

⁶ The Lord said to Satan, “All right. I am handing him over to you. But you must spare his life.”
