Job 28:3


Job 28:2 Job 28:3 (KJV) Job 28:4
Iron is taken out of the earth, and brass [is] molten [out of] the stone.
He setteth an end to darkness, and searcheth out all perfection: the stones of darkness, and the shadow of death.
The flood breaketh out from the inhabitant; [even the waters] forgotten of the foot: they are dried up, they are gone away from men.
