Job 28:6-13 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

6. Its stones are the source of lapis lazuli,and there is gold in its dust.

7. The path no bird of prey knows,nor has the hawk’s eye seen it.

8. The proud beasts have not trodden it,nor has the lion gone that way.

9. He sets his hand to the flinty rock,and overturns the mountains at their root.

10. He splits channels in the rocks;his eyes behold all that is precious.

11. He dams up the sources of the streams,and brings hidden things to light.

12. As for wisdom—where can she be found?Where is the place of understanding?

13. Mortals do not know her path,nor is she to be found in the land of the living.
