Job 28:2-4

New American Standard Bible 1995

² “Iron is taken from the dust,
And copper is smelted from rock.
³ “Man puts an end to darkness,
And ^(A)to the farthest limit he searches out
The rock in gloom and deep shadow.
⁴ “He ^[a]sinks a shaft far from ^[b]habitation,
Forgotten by the foot;
They hang and swing to and fro far from men.
