Job 28:16

Context

28:16 It cannot be measured out for purchase 1  with the gold of Ophir,

with precious onyx 2  or sapphires.

Job 31:26

Context

31:26 if I looked at the sun 3  when it was shining,

and the moon advancing as a precious thing,

1 tn The word actually means “weighed,” that is, lifted up on the scale and weighed, in order to purchase.

2 tn The exact identification of these stones is uncertain. Many recent English translations, however, have “onyx” and “sapphires.”

3 tn Heb “light”; but parallel to the moon it is the sun. This section speaks of false worship of the sun and the moon.
