Job 22:5-30
Is your wickedness not abundant, And is there no end to your guilty deeds?For you have seized pledges from your brothers without cause, And stripped people naked.You have given the weary no water to drink, And you have withheld bread from the hungry.But the earth belongs to the powerful man, And the one who is honorable dwells on it.You have sent widows away empty, And the strength of orphans has been crushed.Therefore traps surround you, And sudden dread terrifies you,Or darkness, so that you cannot see, And a flood of water covers you.“ Is God not in the height of heaven? Look also at the highest stars, how high they are!But you say,‘ What does God know? Can He judge through the thick darkness?Clouds are a hiding place for Him, so that He cannot see; And He walks on the vault of heaven.’Will you keep to the ancient path Which wicked people have walked,Who were snatched away before their time, Whose foundations were washed away by a river?They said to God,‘ Go away from us!’ And‘ What can the Almighty do to them?’Yet He filled their houses with good things; But the advice of the wicked is far from me.The righteous see and are glad, And the innocent mock them, saying,‘ Truly our enemies are eliminated, And fire has consumed their abundance.’“ Be reconciled with Him, and be at peace; Thereby good will come to you.Please receive instruction from His mouth, And put His words in your heart.If you return to the Almighty, you will be restored; If you remove injustice far from your tent,And put your gold in the dust, And the gold of Ophir among the stones of the brooks,Then the Almighty will be your gold And abundant silver to you.For then you will take pleasure in the Almighty And lift up your face to God.You will pray to Him, and He will hear you; And you will pay your vows.You will also decide something, and it will be established for you; And light will shine on your ways.When they have brought you low, you will speak with confidence, And He will save the humble person.He will rescue one who is not innocent, And he will be rescued due to the cleanness of your hands.”

Job 2:3-6
The Lord said to Satan,“ Have you considered My servant Job? For there is no one like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man fearing God and turning away from evil. And he still holds firm to his integrity, although you incited Me against him to ruin him without cause.”Satan answered the Lord and said,“ Skin for skin! Yes, all that a man has, he will give for his life.However, reach out with Your hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh; he will curse You to Your face!”So the Lord said to Satan,“ Behold, he is in your power, only spare his life.”

Ecclesiastes 9:1-2
For I have taken all this to my heart, even to examine it all, that righteous people, wise people, and their deeds are in the hand of God. People do not know whether it will be love or hatred; anything awaits them.It is the same for all. There is one fate for the righteous and for the wicked; for the good, for the clean and the unclean; for the person who offers a sacrifice and for the one who does not sacrifice. As the good person is, so is the sinner; the one who swears an oath is just as the one who is afraid to swear an oath.

Job 1:8-12

For there is no one like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, fearing God and turning away from evil.”Then Satan answered the Lord,“ Does Job fear God for nothing?Have You not made a fence around him and his house and all that he has, on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land.But reach out with Your hand now and touch all that he has; he will certainly curse You to Your face.”Then the Lord said to Satan,“ Behold, all that he has is in your power; only do not reach out and put your hand on him.” So Satan departed from the presence of the Lord.
