Job ; Chapter 2, verse 7-10
7 So Satan went out from the presence of the Lord and afflicted Job with painful sores from the soles of his feet to the crown of his head. 8 Then Job took a piece of broken pottery and scraped himself with it as he sat among the ashes.
9 His wife said to him, “Are you still maintaining your integrity? Curse God and die!”
10 He replied, “You are talking like a foolish[b] woman. Shall we accept good from God, and not trouble?”
In all this, Job did not sin in what he said.
7 تب شیطان خداوند کے سامنے سے چلا گیا اور ایّوب کے جسم کو سر سے پیر کے تلوے تک دردناک پھوڑوں سے بھر دیا۔
8 تب ایّوب کوڑے کے ڈھیر کے پاس بیٹھ گئے۔ اور ٹوٹے ہو ئے مٹی کے برتن کے ایک ٹکڑے سے اپنے پھوڑوں کو کھُر چنے لگے۔
9 ایّوب کی بیوی نے ا س سے کہا، “کیا تو اب بھی خداوند کا وفادار رہے گا؟ تُو خدا پر لعنت کر اور مرجا!”
10 ایّوب نے اپنی بیوی کو جواب دیا ، “تم ایک بیوقوف اور شریر عورت کی طرح بات کر تی ہو! جب خداوند اچھی چیز دیتا ہے ہم انہیں قبول کرتے ہیں۔اسی طرح سے تمہیں تکلیفوں کو بھی بنا شکایت کے ضرور برداشت کرنی چا ہئے۔” ان ساری باتوں کے باو جود بھی ایوب نے گناہ نہیں کیا۔ وہ خدا کے خلاف ایک لفظ بھی نہیں بولے۔
My point of view about above verses
God asked Satan did you observe my servant Job, there is no one on earth like him – he is blameless and upright – a man who fears God and avoids evil
Satan told God – Job is faithful to you as you are protecting him – remove this shield and he will curse you on your face – God permit him to do anything to Job except don’t lay a finger on him
Then Satan went out from the presence of the Lord.
God asked Satan where have you come from
God asked Satan did you observe Job, there is no one like him on earth – he is blameless and upright – a man who fears God and shuns evil and he still maintains his integrity – though you incited me to ruin him
Satan told God since you are not letting me harm him – A man can do anything to save his life – So God told him do whatever you want to do to him but spare his life
Sometimes Satan afflicted us with permission of God
May God give us wisdom to understand Him through His Word as He speaks with us through this - and apply it in our lives to have a blissful life on earth
