Job 28 - King James Bible (KJV Book of Job) Free Bible Online


Job 28

1 - Surely there is a vein for the silver, and a place for gold where they fine it.

2 - Iron is taken out of the earth, and brass is molten out of the stone.

3 - He setteth an end to darkness, and searcheth out all perfection: the stones of darkness, and the shadow of death.

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.

5 - As for the earth, out of it cometh bread: and under it is turned up as it were fire.

6 - The stones of it are the place of sapphires: and it hath dust of gold.

7 - There is a path which no fowl knoweth, and which the vulture's eye hath not seen:

8 - The lion's whelps have not trodden it, nor the fierce lion passed by it.

9 - He putteth forth his hand upon the rock; he overturneth the mountains by the roots.

10 - He cutteth out rivers among the rocks; and his eye seeth every precious thing.

11 - He bindeth the floods from overflowing; and the thing that is hid bringeth he forth to light.

12 - But where shall wisdom be found? and where is the place of understanding?

13 - Man knoweth not the price thereof; neither is it found in the land of the living.

14 - The depth saith, It is not in me: and the sea saith, It is not with me.

15 - It cannot be gotten for gold, neither shall silver be weighed for the price thereof.

16 - It cannot be valued with the gold of Ophir, with the precious onyx, or the sapphire.

17 - The gold and the crystal cannot equal it: and the exchange of it shall not be for jewels of fine gold.

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

19 - The topaz of Ethiopia shall not equal it, neither shall it be valued with pure gold.

20 - Whence then cometh wisdom? and where is the place of understanding?

21 - Seeing it is hid from the eyes of all living, and kept close from the fowls of the air.

22 - Destruction and death say, We have heard the fame thereof with our ears.

23 - God understandeth the way thereof, and he knoweth the place thereof.

24 - For he looketh to the ends of the earth, and seeth under the whole heaven;

25 - To make the weight for the winds; and he weigheth the waters by measure.

26 - When he made a decree for the rain, and a way for the lightning of the thunder:

27 - Then did he see it, and declare it; he prepared it, yea, and searched it out.

28 - And unto man he said, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding.
