Job 1:20-22
1599 Geneva Bible
20 Then Job arose, and [a]rent his garment, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped,
21 And said, (A)Naked came I out of my mother’s womb, and naked shall I return [b]thither: the Lord hath given, and the Lord hath taken it: [c]blessed be the Name of the Lord.
22 In all this did not Job sin, nor charge God [d]foolishly.
