Job 2:8 in Context — Job 2
6 Y Jehová dijo á Satán: He aquí, él está en tu mano; mas guarda su vida.
7 Y salió Satán de delante de Jehová, é hirió á Job de una maligna sarna desde la planta de su pie hasta la mollera de su cabeza.
8 Y tomaba una teja para rascarse con ella, y estaba sentado en medio de ceniza.
9 Díjole entonces su mujer: ¿Aun retienes tú tu simplicidad? Bendice á Dios, y muérete.
10 Y él le dijo: Como suele hablar cualquiera de las mujeres fatuas, has hablado. También recibimos el bien de Dios, ¿y el mal no recibiremos? En todo esto no pecó Job con sus labios.
