Job 1:15-17
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
15 and the Sabeans[a] carried them off in a raid. They put the servants to the sword, and I alone have escaped to tell you.” 16 He was still speaking when another came and said, “God’s fire has fallen from heaven and struck the sheep and the servants and consumed them; I alone have escaped to tell you.” 17 He was still speaking when another came and said, “The Chaldeans[b] formed three columns, seized the camels, carried them off, and put the servants to the sword; I alone have escaped to tell you.”
