KJV ¹ Again there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them to present himself before the LORD.

NEG ¹ Or, les fils de Dieu vinrent un jour se présenter devant l'Eternel, et Satan vint aussi au milieu d'eux se présenter devant l'Eternel.

KJV ² And the LORD said unto Satan, From whence comest thou? And Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.

NEG ² L'Eternel dit à Satan: D'où viens-tu? Et Satan répondit à l'Eternel: De parcourir la terre et de m'y promener.

KJV ³ And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil? and still he holdeth fast his integrity, although thou movedst me against him, to destroy him without cause.

NEG ³ L'Eternel dit à Satan: As-tu remarqué mon serviteur Job? Il n'y a personne comme lui sur la terre; c'est un homme intègre et droit, craignant Dieu, et se détournant du mal. Il demeure ferme dans son intégrité, et tu m'excites à le perdre sans motif.

KJV ⁴ And Satan answered the LORD, and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that a man hath will he give for his life.

NEG ⁴ Et Satan répondit à l'Eternel: Peau pour peau! tout ce que possède un homme, il le donne pour sa vie.

KJV ⁵ But put forth thine hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will curse thee to thy face.

NEG ⁵ Mais étends ta main, touche à ses os et à sa chair, et je suis sûr qu'il te maudit en face.

KJV ⁶ And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, he is in thine hand; but save his life.

NEG ⁶ L'Eternel dit à Satan: Voici, je te le livre: seulement, épargne sa vie.

KJV ⁷ So went Satan forth from the presence of the LORD, and smote Job with sore boils from the sole of his foot unto his crown.

NEG ⁷ Et Satan se retira de devant la face de l'Eternel. Puis il frappa Job d'un ulcère malin, depuis la plante du pied jusqu'au sommet de la tête.

KJV ⁸ And he took him a potsherd to scrape himself withal; and he sat down among the ashes.

NEG ⁸ Et Job prit un tesson pour se gratter et s'assit sur la cendre.

KJV ⁹ Then said his wife unto him, Dost thou still retain thine integrity? curse God, and die.

NEG ⁹ Sa femme lui dit: Tu demeures ferme dans ton intégrité! Maudis Dieu, et meurs!

KJV ¹⁰ But he said unto her, Thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh. What? shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this did not Job sin with his lips.

NEG ¹⁰ Mais Job lui répondit: Tu parles comme une femme insensée. Quoi! nous recevons de Dieu le bien, et nous ne recevrions pas aussi le mal!
En tout cela Job ne pécha point par ses lèvres.

KJV ¹¹ Now when Job's three friends heard of all this evil that was come upon him, they came every one from his own place; Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite: for they had made an appointment together to come to mourn with him and to comfort him.

NEG ¹¹ Trois amis de Job, Eliphaz de Théman, Bildad de Schuach, et Tsophar de Naama, apprirent tous les malheurs qui lui étaient arrivés. Ils se concertèrent et partirent de chez eux pour aller le plaindre et le consoler.

KJV ¹² And when they lifted up their eyes afar off, and knew him not, they lifted up their voice, and wept; and they rent every one his mantle, and sprinkled dust upon their heads toward heaven.

NEG ¹² Ayant de loin porté les regards sur lui, ils ne le reconnurent pas, et ils élevèrent la voix et pleurèrent. Ils déchirèrent leurs manteaux, et ils jetèrent de la poussière en l'air au-dessus de leur tête.

KJV ¹³ So they sat down with him upon the ground seven days and seven nights, and none spake a word unto him: for they saw that his grief was very great.

NEG ¹³ Et ils se tinrent assis à terre auprès de lui sept jours et sept nuits, sans lui dire une parole, car ils voyaient combien sa douleur était grande.
