Editing Job 28

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

* [[Job 28:2|2]] Iron is taken out of the earth, and brass is molten out of the stone.

* [[Job 28:3|3]] He setteth an end to darkness, and searcheth out all perfection: the stones of darkness, and the shadow of death.

* [[Job 28:4|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|5]] As for the earth, out of it cometh bread: and under it is turned up as it were fire.

* [[Job 28:6|6]] The stones of it are the place of sapphires: and it hath dust of gold.

* [[Job 28:7|7]] There is a path which no fowl knoweth, and which the vulture's eye hath not seen:

* [[Job 28:8|8]] The lion's whelps have not trodden it, nor the fierce lion passed by it.

* [[Job 28:9|9]] He putteth forth his hand upon the rock; he overturneth the mountains by the roots.

* [[Job 28:10|10]]  He cutteth out rivers among the rocks; and his eye seeth every precious thing.

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

* [[Job 28:12|12]] But where shall wisdom be found? and where is the place of understanding?

* [[Job 28:13|13]] Man knoweth not the price thereof; neither is it found in the land of the living.

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

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

* [[Job 28:16|16]] It cannot be valued with the gold of Ophir, with the precious onyx, or the sapphire.

* [[Job 28:17|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|18]] No mention shall be made of coral, or of pearls: for the price of wisdom is above rubies.

* [[Job 28:19|19]] The topaz of Ethiopia shall not equal it, neither shall it be valued with pure gold.

* [[Job 28:20|20]] Whence then cometh wisdom? and where is the place of understanding?

* [[Job 28:21|21]]  Seeing it is hid from the eyes of all living, and kept close from the fowls of the air.

* [[Job 28:22|22]] Destruction and death say, We have heard the fame thereof with our ears.

* [[Job 28:23|23]] God understandeth the way thereof, and he knoweth the place thereof.

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

* [[Job 28:25|25]] To make the weight for the winds; and he weigheth the waters by measure.

* [[Job 28:26|26]] When he made a decree for the rain, and a way for the lightning of the thunder:

* [[Job 28:27|27]] Then did he see it, and declare it; he prepared it, yea, and searched it out.

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