Job 28:6 · BSB

Job 28:6 in context

The verses around it, from Job 28.

2 Iron is taken from the earth, and copper is smelted from ore.

3 Man puts an end to the darkness; he probes the farthest recesses for ore in deepest darkness.

4 Far from human habitation he cuts a shaft in places forgotten by the foot of man. Far from men he dangles and sways.

5 Food may come from the earth, but from below it is transformed as by fire.

6 Its rocks are the source of sapphires, containing flecks of gold.

7 No bird of prey knows that path; no falcon’s eye has seen it.

8 Proud beasts have never trodden it; no lion has ever prowled over it.

9 The miner strikes the flint; he overturns mountains at their base.

10 He hews out channels in the rocks, and his eyes spot every treasure.
