Job 2

Job 2:9

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

Dost thou still stand upon the terms of retaining thine integrity, with God, since it speeds no better with thee? I wis, thou hast fared much the better, for thy so humble and patient resigning of thyself into the hands of God. It were as good for thee, to dispatch at once, and be rid out of this misery. Curse God; and he will, by his judgment, make speedy way for thee out of this lingering torment.

Job 2:12

They rent every one his mantle, and sprinkled dust upon their heads toward heaven.

They testified their exceeding sorrow for his great affliction, by rending their clothes, and strewing dust upon their heads.

Job 2:13

So they sat down with him upon the ground seven days and seven nights, and none spake a word unto him.

And they were so affected and astonished with his grievous sufferings, that they sat down silently by him, for the most part of seven days and seven nights, abridging themselves of their wonted rest and sustenance.
