Wisdom and Poetical Books

What was Job’s reaction to these calamities?

He expressed his grief as was customary: He tore his robe and shaved his head. Also, he worshiped God and said, “Naked I came out of my mother’s womb, and naked shall I return thither; the LORD gave, and the LORD hath taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD.” (KJV, Job 1:21)
