Job 1:13 in Context — Job 1

11 Mais étends ta main, touche à tout ce qui lui appartient, et je suis sûr qu’il te maudit en face.

12 L’Éternel dit à Satan: Voici, tout ce qui lui appartient, je te le livre; seulement, ne porte pas la main sur lui. Et Satan se retira de devant la face de l’Éternel.

13 Un jour que les fils et les filles de Job mangeaient et buvaient du vin dans la maison de leur frère aîné,

14 il arriva auprès de Job un messager qui dit: Les bœufs labouraient et les ânesses paissaient à côté d’eux;

15 des Sabéens se sont jetés dessus, les ont enlevés, et ont passé les serviteurs au fil de l’épée. Et je me suis échappé moi seul, pour t’en apporter la nouvelle.
