Job 1:14 in Context — Job 1

12 E o SENHOR disse a Satanás: Eis que tudo quanto ele tem está em tua mão; somente não estendas tua mão contra ele. E Satanás saiu de diante do SENHOR.

13 E sucedeu um dia que seus filhos e filhas estavam comendo e bebendo vinho na casa de seu irmão primogênito,

14 Que veio um mensageiro a Jó, que disse: Enquanto os bois estavam arando, e as jumentas se alimentando perto deles,

15 Eis que os sabeus atacaram, e os tomaram, e feriram os servos a fio de espada; somente eu escapei para te trazer a notícia.

16 Enquanto este ainda estava falando, veio outro que disse: Fogo de Deus caiu do céu, que incendiou as ovelhas entre os servos, e os consumiu; somente eu escapei para te trazer-te a notícia.
