Job 2:12-13
1599 Geneva Bible

12 So when they lifted up their eyes afar off, they knew him not: therefore they lifted up their voices and wept, and every one of them rent his garment and sprinkled [a]dust upon their heads toward the heaven.

13 So they sat by him upon the ground seven days, and seven nights, and none spake a word unto him: for they saw that the grief was very [b]great.
