Job 28:1-28

Surely
<03426>
there is a vein
<04161>
for the silver
<03701>_,
and a place
<04725>
for gold
<02091>
[where] they fine
<02212> (8799)
[it]. {vein: or, mine}
Iron
<01270>
is taken
<03947> (8714)
out of the earth
<06083>_,
and brass
<05154>
[is] molten
<06694> (8799)
[out of] the stone
<068>_.
{earth: or, dust}
He setteth
<07760> (8804)
an end
<07093>
to darkness
<02822>_,
and searcheth out
<02713> (8802)
all perfection
<08503>_:
the stones
<068>
of darkness
<0652>_,
and the shadow of death
<06757>_.
The flood
<05158>
breaketh out
<06555> (8804)
from the inhabitant
<01481> (8802)_;
[even the waters] forgotten
<07911> (8737)
of the foot
<07272>_:
they are dried up
<01809> (8804)_,
they are gone away
<05128> (8804)
from men
<0582>_.
[As for] the earth
<0776>_,
out of it cometh
<03318> (8799)
bread
<03899>_:
and under it is turned up
<02015> (8738)
as it were fire
<0784>_.
The stones
<068>
of it [are] the place
<04725>
of sapphires
<05601>_:
and it hath dust
<06083>
of gold
<02091>_.
{dust...: or, gold ore}
[There is] a path
<05410>
which no fowl
<05861>
knoweth
<03045> (8804)_,
and which the vulture's
<0344>
eye
<05869>
hath not seen
<07805> (8804)_:
The lion's
<07830>
whelps
<01121>
have not trodden
<01869> (8689)
it, nor the fierce lion
<07826>
passed
<05710> (8804)
by it.
He putteth forth
<07971> (8804)
his hand
<03027>
upon the rock
<02496>_;
he overturneth
<02015> (8804)
the mountains
<02022>
by the roots
<08328>_.
{rock: or, flint}
He cutteth out
<01234> (8765)
rivers
<02975>
among the rocks
<06697>_;
and his eye
<05869>
seeth
<07200> (8804)
every precious thing
<03366>_.
He bindeth
<02280> (8765)
the floods
<05104>
from overflowing
<01065>_;
and [the thing that is] hid
<08587>
bringeth he forth
<03318> (8686)
to light
<0216>_.
{overflowing: Heb. weeping}
But where
<0370>
shall wisdom
<02451>
be found
<04672> (8735)_?
and where [is] the place
<04725>
of understanding
<0998>_?
Man
<0582>
knoweth
<03045> (8804)
not the price
<06187>
thereof; neither is it found
<04672> (8735)
in the land
<0776>
of the living
<02416>_.
The depth
<08415>
saith
<0559> (8804)_,
It [is] not in me: and the sea
<03220>
saith
<0559> (8804)_,
[It is] not with me.
It cannot be gotten
<05414> (8714)
for gold
<05458>_,
neither shall silver
<03701>
be weighed
<08254> (8735)
[for] the price
<04242>
thereof. {It...: Heb. Fine gold shall not be given for it}
It cannot be valued
<05541> (8792)
with the gold
<03800>
of Ophir
<0211>_,
with the precious
<03368>
onyx
<07718>_,
or the sapphire
<05601>_.
The gold
<02091>
and the crystal
<02137>
cannot equal
<06186> (8799)
it: and the exchange
<08545>
of it [shall not be for] jewels
<03627>
of fine gold
<06337>_.
{jewels...: or, vessels of}
No mention
<02142> (8735)
shall be made of coral
<07215>_,
or of pearls
<01378>_:
for the price
<04901>
of wisdom
<02451>
[is] above rubies
<06443>_.
{coral: or, Ramoth}
The topaz
<06357>
of Ethiopia
<03568>
shall not equal
<06186> (8799)
it, neither shall it be valued
<05541> (8792)
with pure
<02889>
gold
<03800>_.
Whence
<0370>
then cometh
<0935> (8799)
wisdom
<02451>_?
and where [is] the place
<04725>
of understanding
<0998>_?
Seeing it is hid
<05956> (8738)
from the eyes
<05869>
of all living
<02416>_,
and kept close
<05641> (8738)
from the fowls
<05775>
of the air
<08064>_.
{air: or, heaven}
Destruction
<011>
and death
<04194>
say
<0559> (8804)_,
We have heard
<08085> (8804)
the fame
<08088>
thereof with our ears
<0241>_.
God
<0430>
understandeth
<0995> (8689)
the way
<01870>
thereof, and he knoweth
<03045> (8804)
the place
<04725>
thereof.
For he looketh
<05027> (8686)
to the ends
<07098>
of the earth
<0776>_,
[and] seeth
<07200> (8799)
under the whole heaven
<08064>_;
To make
<06213> (8800)
the weight
<04948>
for the winds
<07307>_;
and he weigheth
<08505> (8765)
the waters
<04325>
by measure
<04060>_.
When he made
<06213> (8800)
a decree
<02706>
for the rain
<04306>_,
and a way
<01870>
for the lightning
<02385>
of the thunder
<06963>_:
Then did he see
<07200> (8804)
it, and declare
<05608> (8762)
it; he prepared
<03559> (8689)
it, yea, and searched it out
<02713> (8804)_.
{declare...: or, number it}
And unto man
<0120>
he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Behold, the fear
<03374>
of the Lord
<0136>_,
that [is] wisdom
<02451>_;
and to depart
<05493> (8800)
from evil
<07451>
[is] understanding
<0998>_.
