Vir erat in terra Hus nomine Job simplex et rectus ac timens Deum;
quem Satan petiit ut tentaret,
et data est ei potestas a Domino in facultates et in carnem ejus,
perdiditque omnem substantiam ipsius et filios,
carnem quoque ejus gravi ulcere vulneravit.
English translation
There was a man in the land of Hus, simple and upright, and fearing God;
whom Satan petitioned that he might test
and the Lord gave him power over both [Job’s] capabilities and his flesh.
and [Satan] destroyed all his substance and his children,
and inflicted his flesh with a grievous ulcer.
