Job, Chapter 28, verses 1-11

“Surely there is a^amine for silver
And a place^bwhere they refine gold.

“Iron is taken from the dust,
And copper is smelted from rock.

“Man puts an end to darkness,
And to the farthest limit he searches out
The rock in gloom and deep shadow.

⁴

“He^csinks a shaft far from^dhabitation,
Forgotten by the foot;
They hang and swing to and fro far from men.

⁵

“The earth, from it comes food,
And underneath it is turned up as fire.

⁶

“Its rocks are the^esource of sapphires,
And its dust contains gold.

⁷

“The path no bird of prey knows,
Nor has the falcon’s eye caught sight of it.

⁸

“The^fproud beasts have not trodden it,
Nor has the fierce lion passed over it.

⁹

“He puts his hand on the flint;
He overturns the mountains at the^gbase.

¹⁰

“He hews out channels through the rocks,
And his eye sees anything precious.

¹¹

“He dams up the streams from^hflowing,
And what is hidden he brings out to the light.
