Job 28:6 in context

Job 28:3–9

3

Man sets an end to darkness,

and searches out, to the furthest bound,

the stones of obscurity and of thick darkness.

4

He breaks open a shaft away from where people live.

They are forgotten by the foot.

They hang far from men, they swing back and forth.

5

As for the earth, out of it comes bread.

Underneath it is turned up as it were by fire.

6
Selected verse

Sapphires come from its rocks.

It has dust of gold.

7

That path no bird of prey knows,

neither has the falcon’s eye seen it.

8

The proud animals have not trodden it,

nor has the fierce lion passed by there.

9

He puts his hand on the flinty rock,

and he overturns the mountains by the roots.
