Job 1:12-19

Thomson(i) 12 Then the Lord said to Satan, Behold all that he hath I deliver into thine hand; but himself thou must not touch. So Satan went out from the Lord, 13 and after that, on the same day, when the sons and daughters of Job were drinking wine at their elder brother's house, 14 lo! a messenger came to Job, and said to him, The oxen were ploughing and the asses feeding near them, 15 and the plunderers came and carried them off. Thy servants also they slew with the sword, and I alone having escaped, am come to tell thee. 16 While he was yet speaking, another messenger came, and said to Job; Fire hath fallen from heaven and burned up the sheep, and devoured the shepherds likewise; and I, alone having escaped, am come to tell thee. 17 While this one was still speaking, another messenger came and said to Job, The horsemen, having formed three bands against us, surrounded the camels and have carried them off, and slain thy servants with the sword; and I, alone having escaped, am come to tell thee. 18 While he was still speaking, another messenger came, and said to Job, While thy sons and thy daughters were eating and drinking at their eldest brother's, 19 a great blast of wind came up suddenly from the wilderness, and took the four corners of the house, so that the house fell upon thy children, and they are dead, and I, alone having escaped, am come to tell thee.
