Job 28:2-4
The Voice
2 There iron is dug from the earth,
and copper is smelted from ore.
3 Humans put an end to darkness,
and search in every last corner
For the ore that is in gloom and darkness.
4 In the earth they cut a shaft
in a place forgotten, far from the beaten path;
They descend on ropes,
swinging dangerously back and forth.
Job 28:2-4
New International Version
2 Iron is taken from the earth,
and copper is smelted from ore.(A)
3 Mortals put an end to the darkness;(B)
they search out the farthest recesses
for ore in the blackest darkness.(C)
4 Far from human dwellings they cut a shaft,(D)
in places untouched by human feet;
far from other people they dangle and sway.
