 Job 1

There was an extremely pious and prosperous man named Job. Satan asserts that Job is pious only because he is prosperous, and in response, God gives Satan permission to destroy Job's possessions and family. All of Job's possessions are destroyed and his offspring killed. Job's response is to worship the Lord.
