Job1:9
9. Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought ?
i. e. Sincerely and freely, and out of pure Love and Respect to thee? No. It is policy, not Piety, that makes him good; he doth not serve thee, but serveth himself of thee, and is a meer mercenary, serving thee for his own ends.
