17 Before that servant finished speaking, a third one raced up and said, “Three gangs of Chaldeans attacked and stole your camels! All your other servants were killed, and I am the only one who escaped to tell you.”
18 That servant was still speaking, when a fourth one dashed up and said, “Your children were having a feast and drinking wine at the home of your eldest son,
19 when suddenly a storm from the desert blew the house down, crushing all your children. I am the only one who escaped to tell you.”
20 When Job heard this, he tore his clothes and shaved his head because of his great sorrow. He knelt on the ground, then worshipped God
21 and said:“We bring nothing at birth;we take nothingwith us at death.The Lord alone gives and takes.Praise the name of the Lord!”
22 In spite of everything, Job did not sin or accuse God of doing wrong.
