Job 1:9 in Context — Job 1
7 L’Éternel dit à Satan: D’où viens-tu? Et Satan répondit à l’Éternel: De parcourir la terre et de m’y promener.
8 L’Éternel dit à Satan: As-tu remarqué mon serviteur Job? Il n’y a personne comme lui sur la terre; c’est un homme intègre et droit, craignant Dieu, et se détournant du mal.
9 Et Satan répondit à l’Éternel: Est-ce d’une manière désintéressée que Job craint Dieu?
10 Ne l’as-tu pas protégé, lui, sa maison, et tout ce qui est à lui? Tu as béni l’œuvre de ses mains, et ses troupeaux couvrent le pays.
11 Mais étends ta main, touche à tout ce qui lui appartient, et je suis sûr qu’il te maudit en face.
