And they made war with the Hagarites, with Jetur, and Nephish, and Nodab.

Job 2:11

וַֽיִּשְׁמְעוּ שְׁלֹשֶׁת׀ רֵעֵי אִיּוֹב אֵת כָּל-הָֽרָעָה הַזֹּאת הַבָּאָה עָלָיו וַיָּבֹאוּ אִישׁ מִמְּקֹמוֹ אֱלִיפַז הַתֵּֽימָנִי וּבִלְדַּד הַשּׁוּחִי וְצוֹפַר הַנַּֽעֲמָתִי וַיִּוָּֽעֲדוּ יַחְדָּו לָבוֹא לָנֽוּד-לוֹ וּֽלְנַחֲמֽוֹ׃
11
Now when Job's three friends heard of all this evil that was come upon him, they came every one from his own place; Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite: for they had made an appointment together to come to mourn with him and to comfort him.
