1Surely there is a mine for silver, And a place for gold which they refine.

2Iron is taken out of the earth, And copper is molten out of the stone.

3[Man] setteth an end to darkness, And searcheth out, to the furthest bound, The stones of obscurity and of thick darkness.

4He breaketh open a shaft away from where men sojourn; They are forgotten of the foot; They hang afar from men, they swing to and fro.

5As for the earth, out of it cometh bread; And underneath it is turned up as it were by fire.
