Job 1:2

1 There was a man in the land of Uz whose name was Job. And this man was blameless and upright, fearing God and shunning evil.

He had seven sons and three daughters,

3 and he owned 7,000 sheep, 3,000 camels, 500 yoke of oxen, 500 female donkeys, and a very large number of servants. Job was the greatest man of all the people of the East.

4 Job’s sons would take turns holding feasts in their homes, and they would invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them.
