Job 1:1-5
There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was blameless and upright, and one who feared God and shunned evil.And seven sons and three daughters were born to him.Also, his possessions were seven thousand sheep, three thousand camels, five hundred yoke of oxen, five hundred female donkeys, and a very large household, so that this man was the greatest of all the people of the East.And his sons would go and feast in their houses, each on his appointed day, and would send and invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them.So it was, when the days of feasting had run their course, that Job would send and sanctify them, and he would rise early in the morning and offer burnt offerings according to the number of them all. For Job said,“ It may be that my sons have sinned and cursed God in their hearts.” Thus Job did regularly.
