Job 28:5-9
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 28
5 From the earth comes food, And underneath, it is turned over like fire. 6Its rocks are the source of sapphires, And its dust contains gold. 7No bird of prey knows the path, Nor has the falcon’s eye caught sight of it. 8The proud animals have not trodden it, Nor has the lion passed over it. 9He puts his hand on the flint; He overturns the mountains at the base.King James Version
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 28
5Food may come from the earth, but below the surface the earth is transformed as by fire. 6Its rocks are a source of lapis lazuli, containing flecks of gold. 7No bird of prey knows that path; no falcon’s eye has seen it. 8Proud beasts have never walked on it; no lion has ever prowled over it. 9The miner uses a flint tool and turns up ore from the root of the mountains.New Living Translation
Chapter 28
5Food is grown on the earth above, but down below, the earth is melted as by fire. 6Here the rocks contain precious lapis lazuli, and the dust contains gold. 7These are treasures no bird of prey can see, no falcon’s eye observe. 8No wild animal has walked upon these treasures; no lion has ever set his paw there. 9People know how to tear apart flinty rocks and overturn the roots of mountains.English Standard Version
Chapter 28
5As for the earth, out of it comes bread, but underneath it is turned up as by fire. 6Its stones are the place of sapphires, and it has dust of gold. 7"That path no bird of prey knows, and the falcon 's eye has not seen it. 8 The proud beasts have not trodden it; the lion has not passed over it. 9"Man puts his hand to the flinty rock and overturns mountains by the roots.New International Version
Chapter 28
5The earth, from which food comes, is transformed below as by fire; 6lapis lazuli comes from its rocks, and its dust contains nuggets of gold. 7No bird of prey knows that hidden path, no falcon’s eye has seen it. 8Proud beasts do not set foot on it, and no lion prowls there. 9People assault the flinty rock with their hands and lay bare the roots of the mountains.New King James Version
