Job 1:18-20

Good News Translation

¹⁸ Before he had finished speaking, another servant came and said, “Your children were having a feast at the home of your oldest son, ¹⁹ when a storm swept in from the desert. It blew the house down and killed them all. I am the only one who escaped to tell you.”

²⁰ Then Job got up and tore his clothes in grief. He shaved his head and threw himself face downward on the ground.
