So Job took action, for the Scriptural account states: “It would occur that when the banquet days had gone round the circuit, Job would send and sanctify them; and he got up early in the morning and offered up burnt sacrifices according to the number of all of them; for, said Job, ‘ maybe my sons have sinned and have cursed God in their heart. ’ ”
Maka, Ayub mengambil tindakan, sebagaimana dikisahkan dalam Alkitab, ” Sewaktu hari - hari perjamuan telah menjalani putarannya, Ayub akan memanggil dan menyucikan mereka; ia bangun pagi - pagi sekali dan mempersembahkan korban bakaran sesuai dengan jumlah mereka semua; karena kata Ayub, ’ barangkali putra - putraku telah berbuat dosa dan telah mengutuki Allah dalam hati mereka. ’
