Når festdagene var over, pleide Job å sende bud etter dem for å hellige dem. Han stod tidlig opp og brakte brennoffer for dem alle, for Job sa: 'Kanskje mine sønner har syndet og forbannet Gud i sine hjerter.' Slik gjorde Job alltid.
and it cometh to pass, when they have gone round the days of the banquet, that Job doth send and sanctify them, and hath risen early in the morning, and caused to ascend burnt-offerings -- the number of them all -- for Job said, `Perhaps my sons have sinned, yet blessed God in their heart.' Thus doth Job all the days.
