Job 28:2-14
-
2 Iron is taken out of the earth, and brass is molten out of the stone.
-
3 He setteth an end to darkness, and searcheth out all perfection: the stones of darkness, and the shadow of death.
-
4 The flood breaketh out from the inhabitant; even the waters forgotten of the foot: they are dried up, they are gone away from men.
-
5 As for the earth, out of it cometh bread: and under it is turned up as it were fire.
-
6 The stones of it are the place of sapphires: and it hath dust of gold.
-
7 There is a path which no fowl knoweth, and which the vulture's eye hath not seen:
-
8 The lion's whelps have not trodden it, nor the fierce lion passed by it.
-
9 He putteth forth his hand upon the rock; he overturneth the mountains by the roots.
-
10 He cutteth out rivers among the rocks; and his eye seeth every precious thing.
-
11 He bindeth the floods from overflowing; and the thing that is hid bringeth he forth to light.
-
12 But where shall wisdom be found? and where is the place of understanding?
-
13 Man knoweth not the price thereof; neither is it found in the land of the living.
-
14 The depth saith, It is not in me: and the sea saith, It is not with me.
