In context

18 Yet was this one speaking, when, another, came in and said,—Thy sons and thy daughters, were eating, and drinking wine, in the house of their eldest brother;

19 when lo! a great wind, came from over the desert, and smote the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they died,—and escaped am, only I alone, to tell thee.

20 Then Job arose, and rent his robe, and shaved his head, and fell to the earth and worshipped;

21 and said—Naked came I forth from the womb of my mother, and naked must I return thither, Yahweh, gave, and, Yahweh, hath taken away,—The name of Yahweh be blessed!

22 In all this, Job sinned not, nor imputed folly unto God.
