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.
16 Il parlait encore, lorsqu’un autre vint et dit: Le feu de Dieu est tombé du ciel, a embrasé les brebis et les serviteurs, et les a consumés. Et je me suis échappé moi seul, pour t’en apporter la nouvelle.
17 Il parlait encore, lorsqu’un autre vint et dit: Des Chaldéens, formés en trois bandes, se sont jetés sur les chameaux, 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.
