Job 1:17-19
The Voice
17 And while the words were still leaving that messenger’s mouth, a third messenger arrived.
Third Messenger: Chaldeans! Three groups of them attacked us. They converged on the camels and stole your 3,000 animals, and as for your servants, they put their swords to us, and everyone is dead—every last one, except me. I am the only one who got away to tell you.
18 And while the words were still leaving that messenger’s mouth, yet a fourth messenger arrived.
Fourth Messenger: All of your children were gathered together today under the roof of your firstborn to celebrate—eating a feast and drinking wine— 19 and then a powerful wind rose up from the other side of the desert, and it struck all four corners of the house. It collapsed! Everyone is dead—all of those young people—every last one, except me. I am the only one who got away from your son’s house to tell you.

18 While he was still speaking, yet another messenger came and said, “Your sons and daughters(B) were feasting(C) and drinking wine at the oldest brother’s house, 19 when suddenly a mighty wind(D) swept in from the desert and struck the four corners of the house. It collapsed on them and they are dead,(E) and I am the only one who has escaped to tell you!(F)”
