Job 28:1-4
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 28
1'Certainly there is a mine for silver And a place for refining gold. 2Iron is taken from the dust, And copper is smelted from rock. 3 Man puts an end to darkness, And to the farthest limit he searches out The rock in gloom and deep shadow. 4He sinks a shaft away from inhabited areas, Forgotten by the foot; They hang and swing, away from people.King James Version
Chapter 28
1Surely there is a vein for the silver, and a place for gold where they fine it. 2Iron is taken out of the earth, and brass is molten out of the stone. 3He setteth an end to darkness, and searcheth out all perfection: the stones of darkness, and the shadow of death. 4The flood breaketh out from the inhabitant; even the waters forgotten of the foot: they are dried up, they are gone away from men.Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 28
1Surely there is a mine for silver and a place where gold is refined. 2Iron is taken from the ground, and copper is smelted from ore. 3A miner puts an end to the darkness; he probes the deepest recesses for ore in the gloomy darkness. 4He cuts a shaft far from human habitation, in places unknown to those who walk above ground. Suspended far away from people, the miners swing back and forth.New Living Translation
Chapter 28
1'People know where to mine silver and how to refine gold. 2They know where to dig iron from the earth and how to smelt copper from rock. 3They know how to shine light in the darkness and explore the farthest regions of the earth as they search in the dark for ore. 4They sink a mine shaft into the earth far from where anyone lives. They descend on ropes, swinging back and forth.English Standard Version
Chapter 28
1“Surely there is a mine for silver, and a place for gold that they refine. 2Iron is taken out of the earth, and copper is smelted from the ore. 3Man puts an end to darkness and searches out to the farthest limit the ore in gloom and deep darkness. 4He opens shafts in a valley away from where anyone lives; they are forgotten by travelers; they hang in the air, far away from mankind; they swing to and fro.New International Version
Chapter 28
1There is a mine for silver and a place where gold is refined. 2Iron is taken from the earth, and copper is smelted from ore. 3Mortals put an end to the darkness; they search out the farthest recesses for ore in the blackest darkness. 4Far from human dwellings they cut a shaft, in places untouched by human feet; far from other people they dangle and sway.New King James Version
