{Job 28:1} Surely there is a vein for the silver, and a place for gold [where] they fine [it. ] ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 28:2} Iron is taken out of the earth, and brass [is] molten [out of] the stone. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 28:3} He setteth an end to darkness, and searcheth out all perfection: the stones of darkness, and the shadow of death. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 28:4} The flood breaketh out from the inhabitant; [even the waters] forgotten of the foot: they are dried up, they are gone away from men. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 28:5} [As for] the earth, out of it cometh bread: and under it is turned up as it were fire. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 28:6} The stones of it [are] the place of sapphires: and it hath dust of gold. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 28:7} [There is] a path which no fowl knoweth, and which the vulture’s eye hath not seen: ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 28:8} The lion’s whelps have not trodden it, nor the fierce lion passed by it. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 28:9} He putteth forth his hand upon the rock; he overturneth the mountains by the roots. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 28:10} He cutteth out rivers among the rocks; and his eye seeth every precious thing. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 28:11} He bindeth the floods from overflowing; and [the thing that is] hid bringeth he forth to light. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 28:12} But where shall wisdom be found? and where [is] the place of understanding? ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 28:13} Man knoweth not the price thereof; neither is it found in the land of the living. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 28:14} The depth saith, It [is] not in me: and the sea saith, [It is] not with me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 28:15} It cannot be gotten for gold, neither shall silver be weighed [for] the price thereof. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 28:16} It cannot be valued with the gold of Ophir, with the precious onyx, or the sapphire. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 28:17} The gold and the crystal cannot equal it: and the exchange of it [shall not be for] jewels of fine gold. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 28:18} No mention shall be made of coral, or of pearls: for the price of wisdom [is] above rubies. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 28:19} The topaz of Ethiopia shall not equal it, neither shall it be valued with pure gold. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 28:20} Whence then cometh wisdom? and where [is] the place of understanding? ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 28:21} Seeing it is hid from the eyes of all living, and kept close from the fowls of the air. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 28:22} Destruction and death say, We have heard the fame thereof with our ears. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 28:23} God understandeth the way thereof, and he knoweth the place thereof. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 28:24} For he looketh to the ends of the earth, [and] seeth under the whole heaven; ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 28:25} To make the weight for the winds; and he weigheth the waters by measure. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 28:26} When he made a decree for the rain, and a way for the lightning of the thunder: ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 28:27} Then did he see it, and declare it; he prepared it, yea, and searched it out. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 28:28} And unto man he said, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that [is] wisdom; and to depart from evil [is] understanding.
