Job 28:6
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.
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.
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.
