1 On the day he became sick and (he) knew that he would have to leave his bodily abode, he called his seven sons and his three daughters together and spake to them as follows:

2 "Form a circle around me, children, and hear, and I shall relate to you what Adonai did for me and all that happened to me.

3 For I am Job your father.

4 Know ye then my children, that you are the generation of a chosen one and take heed of your noble birth.

5 For I am of the sons of Esau. My brother is Nahor, and your mother is Dinah. By her have I become your father.

6 For my first wife died with my other ten children in bitter death.

7 Hear now, children, and I will reveal unto you what happened to me.

8 I was a very rich man living in the East in the land Ausitis, (Utz) and before Adonai had named me Job, I was called Jobab.

9 The beginning of my trial was thus.

10 Near my house there was the idol of one worshipped by the people; and I saw constantly burnt-offerings brought to him as a god.
