Job’s wife says, "Curse God and die" (Job 2:9). Job answers that accepting good from God should include accepting trouble, and the narrator notes that Job did not sin with his lips (Job 2:10).
In Job 2:9–10 Job’s wife urges him to give up his “integrity,” telling him to renounce God and die. Job refuses, rebuking the way she is talking and framing their situation in terms of receiving whatever comes from God’s hand. He argues that if people accept good from God, they should also accept calamity. These lines come in the prologue where Job’s severe losses and bodily suffering have already been described, and where the reader has been shown a heavenly setup unknown to Job.
Job’s wife puts the crisis into words: Job’s suffering seems to make continued “integrity” look pointless, so she urges him to renounce God and embrace death (verse 9).
A careful answer keeps the immediate passage, the book's argument, and the whole-Bible storyline together, so the question is answered in context instead of as a detached idea.
Start with Job 2:9, then read the surrounding section so the answer stays connected to the passage's flow.
9Then his wife said to him, "Do you still maintain your integrity? Renounce God, and die."
