Job, Chapter 1, verses 13-17

¹³ One day when Job's sons and daughters were feasting and drinking wine at the oldest brother's house,

¹⁴ a messenger came to Job and said, "The oxen were plowing and the donkeys were grazing nearby,

¹⁵ and the Sabeans attacked and carried them off. They put the servants to the sword, and I am the only one who has escaped to tell you!"

¹⁶ While he was still speaking, another messenger came and said, "The fire of God fell from the sky and burned up the sheep and the servants, and I am the only one who has escaped to tell you!"

¹⁷ While he was still speaking, another messenger came and said, "The Chaldeans formed three raiding parties and swept down on your camels and carried them off. They put the servants to the sword, and I am the only one who has escaped to tell you!"
