Job 28:11

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.

He stops up the sources of the streams to bring what is hidden to light.

12 But where can wisdom be found, and where does understanding dwell?

13 No man can know its value, nor is it found in the land of the living.

Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
