Saturday's Living Water

Scripture

Then Job arose and tore his robe and shaved his head, and he fell to the ground and worshiped.
He said,
"Naked I came from my mother's womb,
And naked I shall return there
The LORD gave and the LORD has taken away.
Blessed be the name of the LORD."
Through all this Job did not sin nor did he blame God.
Job 1: 20-22



Al llegar a este punto, Job se levantó, se rasgó las vestiduras, se rasuró la cabeza, y luego
se dejó caer al suelo en actitud de adoración. Entonces dijo:
«Desnudo salí del vientre de mi madre,
y desnudo he de partir.
El Señor ha dado; el Señor ha quitado.
¡Bendito sea el *nombre del Señor
A pesar de todo esto, Job no pecó ni le echó la culpa a Dios.
Job1: 20-22 (NVI)
