Job MKJV 2:3  And the LORD said unto Satan, Have you set your heart on My servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one who fears God and turns away from evil? And still he is keeping hold of his integrity, although you moved Me against him to destroy him without cause.
Job MKJV 2:4  And Satan answered the LORD and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that a man has he will give for his life.
