Job 28:6-16

6The stones of it are the place of sapphires: and it hath dust of gold.1 7There is a path which no fowl knoweth, and which the vulture’s eye hath not seen: 8The lion’s whelps have not trodden it, nor the fierce lion passed by it. 9He putteth forth his hand upon the rock; he overturneth the mountains by the roots.2 10He cutteth out rivers among the rocks; and his eye seeth every precious thing. 11He bindeth the floods from overflowing; and the thing that is hid he bringeth forth to light.3 12But where shall wisdom be found? and where is the place of understanding? 13Man knoweth not the price of it; neither is it found in the land of the living.

14The depth saith, It is not in me: and the sea saith, It is not with me. 15It cannot be obtained for gold, neither shall silver be weighed for the price of it.4 16It cannot be valued with the gold of Ophir, with the precious onyx, or the sapphire.
