The Scriptures 1998

Job 28:21-28 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

21. It has been hidden from the eyes of all living, and concealed from the birds of the heavens.

22. Destruction and death have said, ‘With our ears we have heard a report of it.’

23. Elohim has understood its way, and He has known its place.

24. For He looks to the ends of the earth, sees under all the heavens,

25. making a weight for the wind, and measuring out the waters by measure.

26. When He made a law for the rain, and a way for the lightning of thunder,

27. then He saw wisdom and declared it; He prepared it and also searched it out.

28. And He said to man, ‘See, the fear of יהוה, that is wisdom, and to turn from evil is understanding.’ ”
