Job 28:2-4
Legacy Standard Bible
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 thick darkness and shadow of death.
4 He [a]sinks a shaft far from [b]habitation,
Forgotten by the foot;
They hang and swing to and fro far from men.
Job 28:2-4
New King James Version
2 Iron is taken from the [a]earth,
And copper is smelted from ore.
3 Man puts an end to darkness,
And searches every recess
For ore in the darkness and the shadow of death.
4 He breaks open a shaft away from people;
In places forgotten by feet
They hang far away from men;
They swing to and fro.
