12 Therefore, the Lord said to Satan, 'Behold, everything that he has is in your hand, only do not extend your hand against him.' And Satan departed from the face of the Lord.
13 So, on a certain day, when his sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine, in the house of their first-born brother,
14 a messenger came to Job, who said, 'The oxen were plowing, and the donkeys were grazing beside them,
15 and the Sabeans rushed in and carried away everything, and they struck the servants with the sword; and I alone evaded them to tell you.'
16 And while he was still speaking, another arrived, and he said, 'The fire of God fell from heaven, and, having struck the sheep and the servants, it consumed them; and I alone escaped to tell you.'
