Job 1:7 in Context — Job 1
5 E acontecia que, acabando-se o revezamento dos dias de banquetes, Jó enviava e os santificava, e se levantava de madrugada para apresentar holocaustos[conforme] o número de todos eles. Pois Jó dizia: Talvez meus filhos tenham pecado, e tenham amaldiçoado a Deus em seus corações. Assim Jó fazia todos aqueles dias.
6 E em certo dia, os filhos de Deus vieram para se apresentarem diante do SENHOR, e Satanás também veio entre eles.
7 Então o SENHOR disse a Satanás: De onde vens? E Satanás respondeu ao SENHOR, dizendo: De rodear a terra, e de passear por ela.
8 E o SENHOR disse a Satanás: Tendes visto meu servo Jó? Pois ninguém há na terra semelhante a ele, homem íntegro e correto, temente a Deus, e que se afasta de mal.
9 Então Satanás respondeu ao SENHOR, dizendo: Por acaso Jó teme a Deus em troca de nada?
