Job 28:20-28
20Whence then cometh wisdomH2451?And whereH335 is the placeH4725 of understandingH998?21Seeing it is hidH5641 from the eyesH5869 of all living,And kept close from the birdsH5775 of the heavensH8064.22Destruction and DeathH4194 sayH559,We have heardH8085 a rumor thereof with our earsH241.23GodH430 understandeth the wayH1870 thereof,And he knoweth the placeH4725 thereof.24For he looketh to the endsH7098 of the earthH776,And seeth under the whole heavenH8064;25To makeH6213 a weightH4948 for the windH7307:Yea, he meteth out the watersH4325 by measure.26When he madeH6213 a decreeH2706 for the rainH4306,And a wayH1870 for the lightning of the thunderH6963;27ThenH227 did he seeH7200 it, and declare it;He establishedH3559 it, yea, and searchedH2713 it out.28And unto manH120 he saidH559,Behold, the fearH3374 of the LordH136, that is wisdomH2451;And to departH5493 from evilH7451 is understandingH998.
