Job 2:9 in Context — Job 2
7 Et Satan se retira de devant la face de l’Éternel. Puis il frappa Job d’un ulcère malin, depuis la plante du pied jusqu’au sommet de la tête.
8 Et Job prit un tesson pour se gratter et s’assit sur la cendre.
9 Sa femme lui dit: Tu demeures ferme dans ton intégrité! Maudis Dieu, et meurs!
10 Mais Job lui répondit: Tu parles comme une femme insensée. Quoi! Nous recevons de Dieu le bien, et nous ne recevrions pas aussi le mal! En tout cela Job ne pécha point par ses lèvres.
11 Trois amis de Job, Éliphaz de Théman, Bildad de Schuach, et Tsophar de Naama, apprirent tous les malheurs qui lui étaient arrivés. Ils se concertèrent et partirent de chez eux pour aller le plaindre et le consoler!
