ukjv@Job:28:1 @ Surely there is a vein for the silver, and a place for gold where they fine it.

ukjv@Job:28:2 @ Iron is taken out of the earth, and brass is molten out of the stone.

ukjv@Job:28:3 @ He sets an end to darkness, and searches out all perfection: the stones of darkness, and the shadow of death.

ukjv@Job:28:4 @ The flood breaks out from the inhabitant; even the waters forgotten of the foot: they are dried up, they are gone away from men.

ukjv@Job:28:5 @ As for the earth, out of it comes bread: and under it is turned up as it were fire.

ukjv@Job:28:6 @ The stones of it are the place of sapphires: and it has dust of gold.

ukjv@Job:28:7 @ There is a path which no fowl knows, and which the vulture's eye has not seen:

ukjv@Job:28:8 @ The lion's whelps have not trodden it, nor the fierce lion passed by it.

ukjv@Job:28:9 @ He puts forth his hand upon the rock; he overturns the mountains by the roots.

ukjv@Job:28:10 @ He cuts out rivers among the rocks; and his eye sees every precious thing.

ukjv@Job:28:11 @ He binds the floods from overflowing; and the thing that is hid brings he forth to light.

ukjv@Job:28:12 @ But where shall wisdom be found? and where is the place of understanding?

ukjv@Job:28:13 @ Man knows not the price thereof; neither is it found in the land of the living.

ukjv@Job:28:14 @ The depth says, It is not in me: and the sea says, It is not with me.

ukjv@Job:28:15 @ It cannot be got for gold, neither shall silver be weighed for the price thereof.

ukjv@Job:28:16 @ It cannot be valued with the gold of Ophir, with the precious onyx, or the sapphire.

ukjv@Job:28:17 @ The gold and the crystal cannot equal it: and the exchange of it shall not be for jewels of fine gold.

ukjv@Job:28:18 @ No mention shall be made of coral, or of pearls: for the price of wisdom is above rubies.

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

ukjv@Job:28:20 @ Whence then comes wisdom? and where is the place of understanding?

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

ukjv@Job:28:22 @ Destruction and death say, We have heard the fame thereof with our ears.

ukjv@Job:28:23 @ God understands the way thereof, and he knows the place thereof.

ukjv@Job:28:24 @ For he looks to the ends of the earth, and sees under the whole heaven;

ukjv@Job:28:25 @ To make the weight for the winds; and he weights the waters by measure.

ukjv@Job:28:26 @ When he made a decree for the rain, and a way for the lightning of the thunder:

ukjv@Job:28:27 @ Then did he see it, and declare it; he prepared it, yea, and searched it out.

ukjv@Job:28:28 @ And unto man he said, Behold, the fear of the LORD, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding.
