Job 2:8-10
Living Bible
8 Then Job took a broken piece of pottery to scrape himself and sat among the ashes.
9 His wife said to him, “Are you still trying to be godly when God has done all this to you? Curse him and die.”
10 But he replied, “You talk like some heathen woman. What? Shall we receive only pleasant things from the hand of God and never anything unpleasant?” So in all this Job said nothing wrong.
